Odometer is totally dark ???

[MR. BMW]

Are there replacement bulbs for the back of the odometer. When the sun hits it just right I can see the miles, so I know it's working. The rest of the gages are fine, it's just the odometer.
Thanks for the help!

Yes, pull out gauges display and replace the bulbs that are fixed to the back.

hmm, mine are burned out too, is it hard to pull out the gauges display?

 

[Doughnut]

Im not sure with your particular model.
Try www.pelicanparts.com and click on your model and go to the tech articles section, it should give a guide on how to pull out your cluster,

Good luck, and let me know if I was a help.

Thanks doughnut, that Pelican site looks to have all kinds of good stuff. I printed out the instructions and will give it a try next summer .

yeah, do the pelican parts method, the Bentley tells you to remove the airbag and the steering wheel to get the cluster out..............................
