Hey guys,

Just need some help. My C220 has a digital dash cluster, and yesterday my light blew for the clock. Although the clock works and it very hard to see, it doesn't light up anymore...but the milege clock and the temp digital reading all show up perfectly fine. Is this problem as simple as a blown bulb or is this a major job? any do it you're self ideas? Thanks in advance to those who help.

IT a defective speedo unit. A very common problem on those cars. Not a bulb.

Don't want to step on any toes, but the previous poster is absolutely incorrect, the problem is just a bad bulb behind that section, as long as you can get the cluster out it is very easy to replace, although you probably won't find the bulb at a big box auto store, will need a dealer or MB parts specialist to find one. I would recommend replacing the bulbs for these displays all at once (clock/thermometer/odometer (aka "mileage clock", I like that))]

I thought he was referring to the bad LCD problem which is plagued over all the 210, 208 clusters.

Nope, when you can look closely and see that the display is actually operative (can vaguely see the time or temp for example), just not lit, it's just a blown bulb, really really common.

Change all the bulbs when you have the cluster out to save doing the job again.
