Question Heads-Up Display Question

I was just wondering if anyone else has this problem. It only seems to happen once the car has been running for a little while. Basically, the heads up display slowly starts to fade in one corner. The majority of the screen is still visable, but those that are faded are hader too see. Any way to help that out...or is my cluster just goin on me(which i figured that might be the case since i have a bad temp read)

I have that problem, and I feel like the display is separating. I don't have a permanent fix, but try pressing on the plastic surrounding the display right near where its faded. Mine brightens back up if I do that. Sometimes it stays, sometimes it doesn't, sometimes it stays until I hit a bump then fades again.

^^^ mines like t money's. Like where the radio part is when it says the cd-2 track-6. The cd and track are unreadable. But they are still too spendy to replace and I believe there's another thread about this talking about a lawsuit or possibly a re-call???

Yea you exactly described where mine is fading as well. I mean i can live with it, but it would be nice to have workin all the time than "some of the time".

I dont mean to jump off track, but since were talkin about clusters, have any you guys had the check engine light come on....stay on for a a week, then later turn itself off?? i know what code im throwing(p1136) and i thought that the only way to get the light off was to reset it.??? I believe its a faulty front o2 sensor thats just having momentary misfires of information, but im not sure

Some CELs will self-clear if whatever triggered them is fixed, and you perform enough restarts.
