Renault Megane 3 instrument cluster removal

A short instruction on how to remove the instrument cluster on Renault Megane 3 (2011 production year) that has the cluster cover fixed on the dashboard itself. Video and tools made for the removal are based on the instructions I found here (many thanks for this): megane-iii.blog...
The idea behind this was that I wanted to remove the instrument cluster, because over the years - it has collected lots of dust particles and what not, so that I can take it apart and clean it. Once I found that small instructions I tried to find a useful video but there were non of them. So I created one - hope it helps you guys.

Thank you so much for uploading this . One of my light bulb at the rpm wasn’t functioning anymore and had to replace it . Good i found this vid . All the best

Thanks, glad the video was helpful to you ;)

[@RGBFreak]

Could you please explain how you did this? Also, they are LEDs on the PCB, right? Mine are flashing every now and then and I would like to fix it myself

[@1Bertas1]

Can you please tell me what type of bulbs are there?

[@jucaspt]

@@1Bertas1 did you find out?

[@1Bertas1]

@@jucaspt no, i think they will be some small LED hard to replace 😀

[@TheRobotT1000]

Thank you. I have a failing bulb on my instrument panel, and I was considering taking it to the garage as I thought it would take a lot removing the dash to get to that one bulb. But if it's that easy to do I will try it.

[@elhadoui]

Have you succeeded in replacing the failing bulb? Have you brought it to the garage or have you done it yourself? In case of the latter, was it easy?

Super video! Na mom Megane 3 karavanu su nestali zvukovi za žmigavce, sva 4, nevezani pojas i sl. Da li možda znaš gdje bi bio problem i koje je rješenje? Da li je do tog malog zvučnika kojeg spominju po internetu i ako je gdje se on nalazi? Hvala puno i lijepi pozdrav

Zdravo Mario, nažalost nemam nikakve lepe vesti za tebe jer nisam imao tih problema uopšte. Malo sam istražio, pokušaj i ti - navodno je problem ili u samom zvučniku ili u zadnjem centralnom zaključavanju pojaseva, navodno tamo ima senzor koji pravi problem. Da li je i šta je, stvarno ne bih znao... I hvala na komentaru!!!

[@VladimirMitev-mw4po]

are the tools you using any special?

No, but they're hand made by myself according to the instructions provided in the description of the video. There's a look and shape of the tool used, so you can see what I'm talking about.

Skinuo sam tablu na meganu 3 zbog led dioda na obrtometru motora. Od tada mi ne pokazuje brzinu motora. Da li mozda znate u cemu je problem? Da li mozda trebam jace da pritisnem skalu obrtometra ili mizda nesto drugo? Bas sambio pozljiv prilikom skidanja i namestanja.

[@nsuprinztt]

Hvala puno na i vise nego korisnom klipu. Imam dva pitanja. Da li ti je poznato, zbog cega dolazi do treperenja osvetljenja obrtomera? Da li je u pitanju dotrajalost sijalica ili je mozda u pitanju los lem?

Verovatno su LE diode pri izdisaju. Rastavljanje ne bi trebalo da bude previše teško, ali jeste pipavo, pogotovo oko flat kabla za ekran brzinomera.

[@ShomyKG88]

Imam slicno pitanje druze na obrnometru mi konstanto svetli broj 4,5 i skala za obrtaja ostali brojevi se nekad nekad upale i sve radi normalno pa se opet izgubi da li su u pitanji te diode ili mozda neki kontakt?Hvala:)

[@siemprerosso]

I ja imam sličan problem. Nekad donji deo oko 1 i 2 ne radi, nekad gornji oko 4 i 5, nekad ceo panel sa brojevima radi, a nekad ne radi ništa. Ovo ne utiče na kazaljku, ona uvek svetli. Tačno vidim kad prestane neka od lampica da radi. Mislio sam da je do temperature, ali nema pravila kad prestaje sa radom i vraća se u život. Niko od majstora ne želi da se bakće sa ovim jer je pipavo i iziskuje vreme.

Hi is they a cluster test at my temp gauge only goes 1 digit! Wondered if lcd was knackered

Not without Renault CLIP diagnostic tool, unfortunately.

[@saviola2971]

And can you say me how i change the light? She was Blinking all the time

[@jucaspt]

Did you check the type of bulbs?

[@jordanjanchev7139]

Od cega si napravio te limice

Pa... od nekog tanjeg metala, koji se ne može tako preterano lako saviti. Može i tanji aluminijum samo ukoliko je solidno čvrst, da nije previše mekan. Imaš ovde iz uputstva za Megane 3 i kako izgledaju - pa možeš uporediti sa mojom "malom privredom": megane-iii.blogspot.com/p/speedo-cluster-removal.html

koji je motor u ovom autu hvala

1.5dCi od 110ks je u pitanju.

[@zoran.curcic]

@ hvala puno na brzom odgovoru iako je video star. Kako si bio ili si jos uvek zadovoljan sa tim motorom i kako se kretala gradska potrosnja. Hvala jos jednom

@@zoran.curcic Prezadovoljan baš, mala potrošnja i pouzdan motor totalno. Motor NIJEDAN problem za 6 godina, samo filteri i ulje, tj redovan servis. Otvoreno oko 5l, autoput oko 5,8, grad nešto više ali opet ovo sve prethodno je glavno.

Thanks Goran, perfect in every way.

You are a master! thanks man!

Thanks, I'm glad to help ;)

[@smeclau]

Marvelous, very well done!

[@kubagit002]

Maybe you can help me. I need to find and replace buzzer that makes signpost sound. Where find it?

[@juhaeske]

Did you find answer about buzzer? In my dash it is quiet too.

[@kubagit002]

@@juhaeske Not yet but i think im close to. I've found info, that buzzer is located inside a instrument cluster. You need to buy used instrument cluster, open it and take buzzer from used one to yours. You can also buy and replace whole instrument cluster but it is a bit harder, becouse the new one must have lower course than in yours. Then you need to change it in on your current value by CLIP. The new one also must be compatible to your's engine version. Good luck bro!

[@juhaeske]

@@kubagit002 I opened instrument cluster and resistance of speaker t is 1-2 Mohms instead of 50ohms written in speaker. That is really easy to repair. I just ordered few miniature speakers, only 3-4 euros each. Let's see how this goes.

[@juhaeske]

@@kubagit002 There is flat cable for LCD panel. You have to be veryvery careful when lifting PCB up. Open as little as possible to reach soldering points! You might loose some elements in LCD and it will be tricky to get flat cable pressed against contacts again.

[@kubagit002]

@@juhaeske Hell yeah, finally i've had some time to fix it and its working again. For me a bit too quiet, but still better than completly quiet. Or maybe it is possible to make it louder somehow?

[@ervinsheme4817]

Thank you for your video. It's really clear the way you do it. I have a problem with the central part where the fuel level, the water temperature, open doors and real speed is shown. I can not see these clearly or completely, they seems to be vanished or incomplete (I mean the digital display). In your video every sign or digit is seen clear on the central digital screeen. Can you suggest me something to do or how can I repear it? I guess there can be something with the humidity, when I'm driving for a long time the digits looks better bot not as in the begining. thanks again Goran

Hi Ervin, thanks for the praise. What you say seems like either a cold soldering of the display or just a faulty display. There is another video from a Russian guy (as far as I can remember, don't hold my word for it) of complete instrument cluster disassembly - but without removing it from the dashboard. You can try and change the instrument cluster if that's the issue or simply send to electrician for checkout and repair. I just wanted to show people how they can remove the instrument cluster from the dashboard.

koje su dimenzije tog lima? i jel treba da se otpoji akumulator prije?

Ulazna širina ovih metalnih delova je oko 7.5mm, njihova debljina oko 1mm, može i za nijansu deblje, a dužina oko 3-4cm do zakrivljenja. Mora da ima i to koleno da bi mogli lepo da uđe a da ne zagrebe gornji deo table (providni deo i hrom okvir). Kada se ugura, a mora mali jače da se ugura, tabla se uhvati za okvir i lagano izvlači napolje. Bitno je samo da se izvuče instrument tabla lagano, malo po malo, levo pa desno. Volan spustiti skroz dole i odaljiti maksimalno od table da imaš bolji pristup. Skinuo sam džek sa table bez skidanja kleme sa akumulatora, jedina posledica bila je da se resetovala potrošnja goriva.
