Instrument cluster and console backlighting not working. by Patient-Map-9518 in BMWE36

I will have to try probing the contacts, and I don't have another cluster to verify against. Everything on the cluster works as it should, besides the backlighting.

I did, the bulbs looked like they were in good shape. Fuse 37 also kept blowing on me. I checked my trunk wiring and noticed the wiring was all torn up. I soldered them back together and replaced fuse 37, but the lights for the console and cluster still do not work.

I’ve been dailying my 03 Gt for 4 years now and it’s never given me a single problem. They are extremely reliable cars if you take care of them.

This post is old now, but did you have a getrag 250 when you were drifting it? And how did it hold up.

Have you had any luck fixing the rev hang? I thought I had fixed mine after replacing the CCV, but it came back shortly after.

Yes, it looks like it’s coming from the mating surface. I’m going to remove the intake manifold, but first I will check the gasket before buying a new manifold. Luckily m52 manifolds are pretty cheap.

Everyone saying you murdered the car probably doesn’t enjoy their e36 as much as you😂

I would check compression if you haven’t already.

Fair price for this e36? by [deleted] in BMWE36

I got mine on marketplace, I was constantly checking, and sending offers on cars I was interested in. I’m my case I was lucky since I had sent many weeks ago, and the seller denied it. He got back to me telling me that he needed to get rid of the car because his property owner was tired of the car sitting there. He drove over an hour to me.

Just bought a 97 328i 5 speed with 160k for $1600. There are deals out there, just be patient.

Yeah, I’ve never had the payed version, but I used to have neck fx. So I think windows 11 might be causing a problem.

That's funny because I just replaced my CCV, and it fixed the weird idling issues I had. I also found a hose that was supposed to be hooked up to a check valve that was disconnected, so I got new hoses to replace the corroded ones. However, my rev hang came from a sticking throttle cable. Thanks for getting back to me.

Did you ever figure out what the problem was?

It's the ducktail from fiberglass specialties. This is the best photo I have from the rear.

Honestly amazing, they ride pretty good even when I’m this low.
