    As for the capacitors, just to add some dimensions/sizes:
    I have been told by the electronic guru of the German 7 forum many years ago: you can replace them with higher voltage such as all with 35 Volt ones or more as long as they fit by size/dimensions.
    You just have to pay attention to the diameter, otherwise they do not fit, max. thickness/diameter of 10 mm is possible and NOT higher than 16 mm.
    The distance between the "feet/legs" of the capacitor should be 5 mm.
    So the dimensions are the most important, the rest does not matter much.

    Has anyone done a repair on a Blue back Gen II cluster? Mine is a June 1992 cluster.

    Mine is flashing and 'gong-ing' non-stop!

    see here, in my case the problem was the OBC, not the cluster - chime/gong randonly comes on - solved https://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/s...highlight=gong
