Good day to all!
I created this topic in order to understand whether it is worth developing a chip with replacing displays with A6C5 and not only. It is known that our displays do not run for long. And if they turn up, then the stories that they can be restored are a MYTH. with rare exceptions. Replacement only. The fact is that I got the opportunity to purchase these displays, and I can also carry out their replacement. But there needs to be a demand for it. First, I want statistics. In this thread, write who has encountered the problem of crumbling pixels and whether you will be ready to contact me if I organize this case.

Video (click to play).

P.S. Request: do not advertise to Muscovites who carry out such repairs in this thread!

I have already replaced about 60 of them and displays for VDO are almost always in stock. Buying through Ebay or from the Balts is not a problem. There are already several similar themes on the form. Search rules.

How much does it cost to replace the central display with an A6C5 and do you have the display itself?

With the price of Dima, everything is clear, now you want to know the price from the author of the topic? And then I also have nothing on the display.

Replacement 1500 rubles. With all guarantees. If God forbid the synchro flies to the immobilizer or the axle collapses when removing the arrows, these are my problems and I know how to solve them. I don’t buy screens (I’m tired of buying and getting broken during shipment), they are in the “Stagecoach” in the spare parts department. Cost around 4000 rubles.

The standard price for replacing these displays from people who are doing this is 5000 rubles. with display and with work. I obviously will not offer a price lower than 5000 rubles, but there is no point above it either. As for the displays, they are at my contact in 2600 rubles. with a full guarantee that a normal product will fall into my hands.
DiCh is a well-known specialist on the forum, I have no doubt about its competence. But if I decide to do it myself, I will announce it in this thread.

This publication will be useful for all motorists, auto mechanics, locksmiths and those who are simply interested.Our car resource> is made for you and we will try to help you repair your car.

Today we will talk about the repair and replacement of the dashboard in the Audi A6 C5. If you have it broken and you need to replace it, then our video tip will definitely come in handy. What difficulties await when removing it?

If you decide to repair the dashboard in your AUDI A6 C5 with your own hands, then it is better to do it like this:

  • To replace the dashboard in the Audi A6, you need to take a screwdriver.
  • Pry off the tidy and pull it towards you.
  • After that, you need to disconnect all the wires that are connected to the dashboard.
  • After that, you can replace the dashboard in the Audi A6 with a new one by correctly connecting all the wires.

To understand the replacement and repair process, watch our video instruction to independently repair the dashboard in the Audi A6 C5.

More than a year ago, lines began to appear on the back of the dashboard of my car. Moreover, at first the glitch had a random character, but after a while it stabilized - the lines dropped out, dropped out and dropped out.

I heard for a long time that this can be cured without replacing the entire dashboard. And so, after studying the experience of other Audi owners, I decided to carry out an operation to replace the LCD on my car.

I was lucky to be born in the USSR, i.e. in those days, when, in the 3rd grade of school, I had the opportunity to attend a radio circle. (free!) The skills acquired in the circle were very useful in this repair.

Actually, the whole process was preceded by the purchase of a display on e-bay. The cheapest one we managed to find cost $ 45, delivery cost $ 18, only $ 63 or

9,200 tenge, which is much cheaper than buying a complete tidy, and it costs about $ 300.

Surprisingly, I had to sweat a lot to remove the tidy. Both screws with which the tidy was fastened were tightened quite tightly. One screw even had to be drilled out, since an attempt to unscrew it did not lead to anything, the screwdriver began to turn. But, fortunately, the rest of the process went like clockwork.

Due to technical difficulties, I could not take a photo of the process of removing the panel, as well as the initial stage of disassembling the panel itself and soldering the display. We managed to start the “photo session” right after the installation of the display. But the disassembly process can be restored, so to speak, speculatively.

(!) Yes, and don't forget to disconnect the battery. I disconnected the positive contact.

The state of the panel immediately after the new LCD was soldered, the old one is visible on the left, above the tidy board.

Who cares, at the top left you can see a blue book - this is the volume “To Have or To Be” by E. Fromm.

Other "spare parts" are also visible here - dials, hands and an instrument.

Everything worked the first time. The display began to show an aesthetically correct picture.
The only thing was that it was not immediately possible to set the arrows correctly.
Therefore, I had to disassemble and assemble the tidy a couple of times to correct their positions.

This is how it looks after renovation:

True, the colors in the pictures turned out to be a little different. Probably what the eye does not see was seen by the camera.

Welcome to the Audi Allroad Owners Club.

I wrote down a photo report on replacing the dashboard BC screen.
I think it will be useful to many.

1. Move the steering wheel towards you and down as much as possible. Then remove the decorative steering column cover under the dashboard.

2. Unscrew 2 self-tapping screws and gently pull the tidy ourselves with the knobs.

3. First pulls out the left side of the tidy so that you can stick your hand.

4. Snap off the 3 connectors on the back of the tidy. You can use your hands, but it is most convenient to pry it off with a flat screwdriver.Having disconnected the cables, we take out the tidy and carry it home.

5. Put it on the table and unscrew 2 screws under the "asterisk", aka torx. In the absence of a screwdriver, you can use a hexagon for 3

6. Having unscrewed 2 screws, carefully snap off the fasteners around the perimeter of the tidy.

7. Having removed the upper part, proceed to the removal of the arrows and instrument scales. ATTENTION remember / photograph the initial position of the arrows in order to correctly set during assembly. Arrows to shoot pull up and rotate counterclockwise.

The scales have grooves, to remove them, you just need to turn the scale.

9. Next, to remove the white plastic and get to the board with the screen, you need to bend the iron edges of the display bezels. After removing them, carefully remove the plastic by bending the latches along the edges of the board.

10. And here is our patient) let's start the operation

11. Armed with a soldering iron (in my case, a soldering station), gently heating the cable at the soldering point with a hairdryer and helping with a soldering iron we solder the old display. ATTENTION! In no case should you make an effort to rip the cable off the board, and even heat the whole thing with an ordinary soldering iron. So it is very easy to tear off the contact pads from the board, and it will be problematic to restore them without equipment and experience. In no case do not rush and you will succeed)

12. Putting everything together in reverse order and going to check in the car. If everything was done correctly, then we are happy with the result)

Help with arrows. After being removed they no longer react. Magnetism Marelli tidy 1998 Audi a6c5. What's broken there? The whole pin that is inserted into the motor is not bent at all, not broken. I tried to insert it further and closer and does not react. It is easy to turn with your hands in all directions. There is no side-chapel anywhere, just at least 360 degrees in a circle. Tell me how to restore their work. Before removal, everything worked properly.

the panel does not work for me on the panel of the device what are the problems

Hello, I have a c5 of 2004, the tidy is dim, the adjustment works when at maximum it becomes only a little brighter, who will tell you whether to change the bulbs or how? Thank you

vdo has the same problem. the oil sensor lives its own life. soldering helped?

The problem is to find VDO under my avdotya in good condition, since I have the very first model C5

I first changed to a new percent with firmware. I attended in person. The panel served for 2 months.

I don't even know where to find such specialists. Moreover, on the VDO panel there will be an on-board computer at once.

damn just now, I tested the tidy, the oil temperature also does not work (

+ dima711775 Did you test it in the sense that you did a "Test of the performers" or did you notice during the movement that the arrow does not deviate?

good day, I also have such a car, I would like to know where the block is located, the center of the lock, it does not open from the remote control and does not close from the remote control, but from the key only opens but does not close the center of the lock, could you share your skill

Audi (Audi) - repair of dead pixels on the LCD display of the board computer and in the dashboard

*** spare parts for professional and personal use (DIY) ***

Raschlichny car models Volkswagen and Audi, including VW Bora, Passat, Sharan and Audi A3 A4 A6 A8 have a common problem of dead, faded or completely disappearing pixels on the large red LCD in the middle of the dashboard. An LCD panel pixel problem is related to an LCD screen that needs replacing to recover damaged or dead pixels. Here you can see pictures of the LCD panel before and after replacing it:

Models
Audi (Audi) A3 / A4 / A6, VW (Volkswagen) Sharan / Sharan, Bora / Bora, Golf / Golf, Seat / (Seat, Seat):

The above instrument is just one example of the wide variety of instruments for which these LCDs have been used. Most of the time they are found in VW, Audi, Seat and Ford models. The common part is a LARGE RED LCD panel with dead pixels in the middle. Fading pixels on the LCD screen by line or by so much (sometimes worse when heated).

It is important to know that these speedometers made by Siemens VDO and Jaeger have different LCD displays.It is worth removing the speedometer from the dashboard, checking for the presence of the VDO or Jaeger sign. For VDO models we sell both versions (original VDO and Chinese LCD display) and for Jaeger models we only have Chinese version.

The dashboard on an Audi A6 car is a complex device with processors, memory, microcircuits, stepper motors and drivers for all these devices and not only.

Even the elementary lighting on a modern panel is a separate unit with lamps and converters. However, even taking into account the high-quality equipment, sometimes the instrument panel does not work. Image - DIY a6 c5 display repair

I would attribute to the main reasons for the failure of the instrument panel of an Audi car:

  • Mechanical intervention for the purpose of flashing
  • Intervention to replace bulbs and other equipment
  • Failure of electronic equipment

Replacing the dashboard on the Audi A6, like on other cars, is a rather complicated and time-consuming process. I cannot fully describe it.

  1. We pry out all the clips of the clip, etc. Image - DIY a6 c5 display repair
  2. We extend the panel towards the steering wheel, for this we need a metal ruler Image - DIY a6 c5 display repair
  3. Now, putting our hand behind the panel, push it out. Image - DIY a6 c5 display repair
  4. Now we disconnect all the chips and contacts. We do the work carefully so as not to damage it. Image - DIY a6 c5 display repair
  5. We dress the dashboard in reverse order.

Maybe someone will come in handy, you never know.
If there are few skills in handling a soldering iron, it is better to entrust the replacement of the display to specialists in this matter.

First of all, we stomp into the car to remove the tidy. There is nothing complicated in this procedure. Two screws, three removed connectors and the panel is in our hands. Stomp happy home.
We sit comfortably at the table and proceed to disassemble the panel itself. First, remove the upper part (the one with the glass). Two hidden latches on the sides (I pressed with tweezers), and above and below (like two from the bottom, four from above, or maybe vice versa, it’s not the point, it will be clear in the place). They removed the upper part. We look at the scales and arrows. We remember how they stand. We shoot the arrows, very CAREFULLY. I heard there are craftsmen who manage to break them off. I shot by turning them counterclockwise and lifting them up at the same time. They took it off. Now we remove the dials. Nothing complicated. We remove the small ones by lifting them from the bottom of the guides and pulling them down from the grooves. They took it off. Turn the large ones to the corresponding slot on the dial and case. They took it off. We separate the board from the bottom of the tidy. Two latches on the sides, black. Separated the board. We remove the plastic backlight distributor along with the hours and mileage indicators, having previously unbent the clamps from the bottom. They took it off.

We also remove the plate that fixes the display. The same four clamps from the bottom of the board.

We unsolder the loop. Carefully. Although I tore it off for the most part.

If you soldered two or three tracks, it doesn't matter. Take a stranded copper wire, strip it and attach it to the jamb, heat it with a soldering iron. Lo and behold, everything is fine, excess solder on the wire. We check the absence of welded tracks and snot. If there are any, delete it. That's it, the display is soldered. At the speed of light, we rush into the car to check.

We are convinced that everything is fine and we stomp to put the panel together.
As we put it together, we admire the work done.

That's all. Let me remind you again. It is a responsible matter, if you feel that you are screwing up, entrust people who will do everything without problems.

To replace the dashboard on the Audi A6, you only need a screwdriver to pry it and pull it out. Next, we disconnect the wires that are connected to the panel and change it to a new one. Insert carefully so as not to damage the fasteners.

  • connect the connector by swinging, insert the panel
  • we fasten two self-tapping screws
  • we return the plastic insert to its place.

When installing a new dashboard, you need to reboot the system, it should see and recognize the "new device".

The video lesson is suitable for the Audi A6 C5.
