Thread: 2008 d3 electrical faults

If you do swap them, I'd love to get a look at the faulty one. I was going to borrow Shanes repaired one to get a look at the repair, but I'd be interested in getting a look at an "unmolested" faulty unit to see how hard it might be to re-work given all the "intelligence" on the net points toward lead-free solder related issues.

I had a quick look at the one i removed and couldn't see anything obvious without a microscope, i would see if i could fix one as i have a rework station that i have used for xbox 360's that got the famous RROD errors which was down to solder cracking on the GPU/motherboard .

Hi all, it's on its way to the UK to get fixed. Tell more when I get it back.

Hi all,
I received my cluster last Friday, put it in the car and it all works fine.
Totaltronics said that the high-speed bus had a fault.

have been driving it a few days and it hasn't missed a beat.
Check the bench test.
