EP3 CTR fuel gauge won't illuminate - not a blown bulb

[Partyvan]

As title really, fuel gauge has never illuminated since I owned the car

Changed the bulbs today (all 9 of them to red LEDs) - and still the same area of the cluster is dark. Basically the far right corner.

Any ideas on the fault?

Thanks

Any ideas?

Duff LED holder? Duff LED? I very much doubt it's fused individually...

Thing is it didn't illuminate a standard bulb or an LED one, almost like the track to that holder is duff.

If I fitted clocks from another CTR would they show my correct mileage, or the mileage from that car?

It would show the mileage of the car it came from.

I'm just changing the whole cluster lol. Lazy solution.

Could get a milage correction place to tamper with it, put it at the proper millage.

Hello mate could I ask what LEDs you used please?
Also with your problem it could just not be sitting right on the board try give it a wiggle, clean contacts etc I always change the LEDs in my cars with no problem but had a Astra van with same issue as yours but after plenty of patience and faffing on it worked
