CLS C218 Instrument Cluster LED's flickering / dim

[EmilioGomez]

Hi everyone,

I need some help with my CLS 350 CDI C218 Shooting Brake. Some parts of my backlight on the instrument cluster are dimmed and some parts seem to flicker mainly when I turn the lights on / light on the instrument cluster. Looks like backlight LED's or I2C module problem / connectivity - I took the thing out and could not find any ribbon cables. Anyone had that problem or knows how to fix?
Speed needle also gets dim when reaches the area of backlight issue.
Your help will be much appreciated.
