W203 [C200] Instrument Cluster not Working

[amarbl]

Hello Everybody,
I have a problem with my 2001 C200 Komp. This morning went to start the car after not using it for about a week. The car started straight away, but then noticed that the instrument cluster was dead. nothing working no computer, no odometer, engine revs or fuel guage. no lights inside the cluster. everything else on the car works, i.e, light, indicators.
its just looks that there is no power to the instrument cluster. Anybody have a idea what is wrong?

Thanks.

Did the lights come on when you first put the key in

Hi Macolm,
yes, the lights came on. They cannot be turned off.

Hi,
I have the exact same problem with my c200k w203. Instrument cluster appears to have gone dead all of sudden. It hadn't been driven for 4 days.

Would appreciate some direction here and what you did to fix this issue?
Thanks in advance.

H.

You do have fuses for this and worth checking.
