Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order.

Reported cause
(My problem was random as well, it just stopped working overnight).
Leading evidence: 'random as well' (1 discussions report identifying this cause; no attributable repair resolution). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'random as well' (1 discussions; 1 report identifying it and 0 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Replace bulb as part of the 60k service' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.

Sonnen in Mill Valley replaced the bulb as part of the 60k service

Hey, let's revive a thread from 3 years ago because I had this issue today and I used the search tool.

Suggestion
I don't know if you know this, but you can change the settings to make different information appear and disappear in the display below the tach or even shut the display off (see manual).

Is it possible to replace without taking the dash apart?

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Woke up this morning and when I lit off the car there was no digital speedo or thermometer
Anyone had experience with this?
All other digital/analog guages are working fine.
Appreciate the help.
Mike
I don't know if you know this, but you can change the settings to make different information appear and disappear in the display below the tach or even shut the display off (see manual). That could explain the thermometer. Off the top of my head, I didn't think the digital speedometer could be shut off but I haven't played around with this much.
Mike,
Look at the display closely. These are LCD's and need backlight. Sometimes the backlights go out, or the connections come a little loose. You might be able to see the numbers if you look close enough.
Mine did this (on the odometer) and I just tapped on the location (pretty hard) with my fingers, and it came back on. (My problem was random as well, it just stopped working overnight).
If the bulb is dead, replacement is in order.

What's that acronym....DAFS, ha.
Hip hip hooray, maybe I only need a new bulb.
Funny how I rely on the digital speedo to remind me how much over the speed limit I'm driving at any give time, ha.
Anyone else have their bulb go out?
Is it possible to replace without taking the dash apart?
this happened on my odometer a few weeks back. it came back the next day and seemed fine since then. it was still working, but the light was out. i chalk it up to the usual phantom electrical problems and keep on driving.
Ha, good one Tim.
My first thought was it must a $1,000 German computer module to control Geschwindigkeit digital conversion computational analysis, never really occurred to me that it could just be a bulb, ha.
Maybe I should get 2 new bulbs, one for the car.....
