W220 Instrument panel blowing fuses

A friend brought over his 02 S600 which has been blowing fuses and loosing power to the instrument cluster
Hoping somebody can help me sort this out
Basically a weekend drive and every weekend it blows a fuse and instrument panel goes dark.
His son changed Fuse 20 and F22 previously today it was F21 that was blown.
When I changed all fuses it was still dark.
He called the Dealer who told him to come in for a $1200 instrument cluster . I'm hoping its something else or possibly a recall
Thanks in Advance
BOb

The W220"s have had cluster issues since their inception!

MB issued a 10 year warranty for those issues, BUT most likely that has expired for that year car.

A reman cluster from dealer should be less that $800 installed & coded.

Several places including NSI in No. Carolina can repair those clusters.
