EEP-2 error on an E36 cluster - 523i BMW Cars & Trucks

Question edited for clarity.

Made in China, but a good and expensive device. If you can get inside, you could disconnect the battery for 5 minutes to reset the control board.

I can't find any reference to the error code, but page 1 of the manual has a Customer Service number. Try and claim on the warranty.

No, as far as I now there are no panels, doors, bonnet/hood, boot/trunk the same between the 2 door E36 Coupe & the four door E36 Saloon!

Hello!

Well it depends if you can wiggle the cluster without removing the steering wheel.
There are 2 screws securing the cluster on the very top of the cluster dome.
After you unscrew those have to push the cluster in a bit and then wiggle it out, release the cables going to the cluster and see if it clears the steering wheel (having adjustable steering wheel helps a lot)

If you manage to get the cluster out the bulbs are easily replaceable, and can be bought at any decent car parts store.

Hope this helps!
