Question on Instrument Cluster Replacement for a 97 E420 (W210)
 

My 97 E420 instrument cluster was found to be defective and was told by the dealer to replace it with a new one which will cost aroud $800. Instead, I bought a used functional cluster (with slightly higher mileage) last week from a wrecking yard. My question is that can I just simply plug in the replacement cluster or will the car's OBC recognizes the replacement cluster's higher mileage and send an error message.

Thanks for any answers.

YES, as long as it came from a 1997 E420!!

Yes, I did get a cluster from a wrecked 97 E420. So what you are saying is that I can just simply plug the replacement cluster in and the car's OBC would not reject it.

Thanks, Garry

No problem!
