Dashboard Display Pixels
I was wondering if anyone can help me with this issue. My 2001 540i dashboard display pixels are burned out or going bad. How can I get this fix?

You have 3 option
1. Get in touch with BMWNA, they might offer you a "Good Wil" service for it. Depend on your relationship with the dealer. 2. Buy the cabble/ribbon and attempt the repair yourself. Very tidious work but I did it. 3. Paid to have it done. And next time  The topic had been covered many many times.
