I' ve got a little problem with my 1989 525i. I have no indication from my right turn and high beam LED's. It's strange - because I've replaced the bulbs and they are working, but when instrument cluster is connected they're not. My indicator bulbs and high beams are also good.
What else could it be? :(
Take out and inspect the instrument cluster board for cracked solder joints, or bad sockets. (You must've had the board out already from replacing the light bulbs, so I dont think you need the procedure.)
Heat up and re-flow the solder connections for all of the lights that dont work, also it might be good to check the capacitors while you have it out.
They need to be replaced.

My question is do I have to replace square caps too or jus the round ones?
Could if possibly be something else? like a fuse or wire outside of the cluster?
