Are you sure that was a Land Rover Dealer????

reply- yes that's right!

also vehicle is in workshop for 1st mot & check over, while in process of replacing back light bulb that lights up the Lcd display for the climate control (you have to strip out the centre consol a fair bit), its now transpires that the bulb is not blown but there is no supply to the bulb holder from the circuit board.

on the basis that the new control unit required is £520 & there is nothing to loose, a quick look under the covers shows that it will be possible to snip off the bulb holder contacts from the pcb & solder in new feed wires connected to a suitable supply

not a genuine LR repair, they would just fit a new unit same as they would of put on a whole door mirror instead of a bezel ring & glass!!
