Overhead Console Display

I attempted to repair mine today and made a mess of it. My plan B is to replace it but that is not looking good either as I cannot seem to find one. Do you guys have any suggestions for me as to where to find one?

Thanks in advance!

I repaired mine failed again, I used the ebay guy also, I believe he refunds if he can’t repair it, but check me on that.

I saw on this forum ‘years’ ago that there is one wire (maybe a blue one) that if disconnected will make it brighter - I did it and it worked. Just don’t old me to the wire color, my memory can be less than top notch at times, lol. Maybe others can ring in on this.
