This works for 2002 roadster

you need SPECIAL star ended Allen keys. Sorry, cant remember exactly what they are called. Not very expensive (TROX ?).You can remove the glass fronted instrument cluster by using the special headed Allen key to remove the 2 TOP screws which are under the curve of the cluster mount. There are two sunken rings which these screws came out of. If you can GENTLY hook something through these ,the glass instrument cluster can be pulled out of the surround. I also used a CLEAN rubber sink plunger to grip the curved glass & help pull forward. The cluster will slip past the steering wheel if you disengage the wiring loom clips. you have to depress the catch behind the SWIVEL to release it back, then it will pull free.

How do you repair an odometer that does not light on a 98 BMw z3 roadster?

To repair a non-lighting odometer on a 1998 BMW Z3 Roadster, first check the fuse related to the instrument cluster, as a blown fuse can cause the odometer light to fail. If the fuse is intact, you may need to inspect the instrument cluster for loose connections or damaged wiring. In some cases, the odometer's internal bulbs may need replacement; disassemble the cluster to access and replace them. If these steps do not resolve the issue, consider consulting a professional, as the problem could involve a faulty circuit board.


How do you you set the time in a 2004 BMW 325ci?

Very aggravating problem with a simple answer thanks to my wife! First, you must have the time showing in the instrument cluster of your dashboard (the digital display in the center of the dash showing the odomoter, temperature, etc.). If the time is not showing in the instrument cluster, then look/feel for a small button labelled 'BC' on the end of the turn signal indicator lever. Push this button to scroll through the options for the instrument cluster and stop when the time is displayed. With the time showing in the instrument cluster, twist and hold the right knob on the instrument cluster until the time starts to change. You can twist it forward or backwards depending on which way you want to set the time. This sets the time in both the instrument cluster and the radio.

Replace Instrument Cluster 88 BMW 325is?

First take off the steering wheel. Remove the BMW symbol in the middle of the steering wheel and take off the nut underneath, mark the wheel so you can realign it correctly when you reinstall it. The manual says to remove the steering column covers but i did it without removing them. Take off the plastic peice below the instrument cluster by pushing the plastic tabs from the rear ( behind dash ). Take out the 2 small Phillips screws above the cluster and the 2 small screws below it. Carefully rotate it forward. There are 3 harnesses attached to the back and 2 wire pairs and one other wire plugged into the back of this thing. The harnesses are color coded ( pull on the black center plasic piece till it comes up then pull off the connectors). Mark the other ones so you can put them back where they belong when you reinstall or install a new cluster. Installation reverse of removal.
