Renault Megane - Digital clock...is it broken or resting?

Renault Megane RXE 2.0 1998

The CD display and the clock/temp are next to each other. The CD display is fine. The fuse is fune. The clock was fine but today the display has disappeared. Is the entire clock likely to be dead or something more simple? How do these things illuminate? Is there a seperate bulb that generates the display? The entire digital area is dark - no signs of life on the clock side of the display at all. Integral temperature display also not showing.

Insight very welcome before I take this thing apart and make a real hack of it all...

Thanks

Emma

That's great John - and you are right - I can see the display if I look closely. Operation "dismantle car to insert new bulb" will begin soon....

The problem is simply due to a dud bulb behind the display. If you look at the clock closely I reckon the display is still there - you just can't see it! To get at the thing, the entire dashboard top comes off. If I remember correctly you prise off the speaker covers at the corner to reveal screws underneath - the dash top then lifts upwards to reveal the back of the display and the bulbs come out with their holders. Renault will rob you for the bulb - you could try a motor factor but they aint so common. Hope this helps!
