Hello,

I purchased some bulbs from mercedes source for my 93 400E that were supposed to make my instrument cluster brighter (which it did.) However, now when I have my lights on, my left turn signal arrow in the cluster is lit. The right one is fine. When I engage the left turn signal, it blinks as normal so it is the bulbs.

Before this happened, I took out the cluster to add some white gauge faces and noticed that the bulbs had melted some of the area of the cluster housing around it. I contacted mercedes source and they said this would not hurt anything.

Later, I noted that the left arrow was lit.

Question: Mercedes source said that I would have to replace the cluster. Is that true? Is there anything that other than that I can do to repair it and how much would a new cluster cost for a 93 124?

Thanks for your help.
