D8 or D9?
There are replacement units on ebay for £20 odd, are you sure the backlights on the display haven't gone?
I've got a similar problem, sometimes I start the car up and the display is "dead" but I give it a flick (or two :roll: ) and it comes back. There must be a dry joint but it hasn't annoyed me enough to rip it apart yet!

Yep as Eoin says standard dash bulbs, pop down a breakers and stick a load in your pocket :supafrisk:
I believe Maplins sell them too.
