Instrument cluster blank
Have an e90 and my cluster is totally blank since today. Radio, heating work. Clock and dates on the radio are blank and when I tried to set it, it cannot be set.
Any ideas? My car is an '07. Since radio, windows and everything else is working, I dont think it can be the battery.. |

Check fuses first.
Check fuses first.
The fuse panel is behind the glove compartment there is a fuse map there to. The 07 and on ward have a recall for the fuse panel connector also the connector on for the hot line is known to intermittently fail . This can be verified by shaking the hot line. It can cause the car to stop operating while you are driving it. |

Well I have checked the cluster fuse and it blows immediately a new one in put in so there's my problem. It's an issue with fuse 74 - the OBD and cluster fuse (for lci cars that is). So looks like its a short or an earth issue. I will investigate further later on tonight and hopefully find the issue myself otherwise can see a nasty bill coming

Disconnect your battery and then insert the fuse - reconnect the battery. I had a similar issue happen in my '06 (fuses kept blowing when replaced).
