Took this to a local guy to get this re-soldered today. Paid more than I wanted to, but didn't trust my soldering skills and didn't want the car unusable for a while whilst I sent the cluster off. Came with a warranty as well and looks good on initial run. Thanks to everyone who replied. Knowing what the problem was helped a lot in making a decision with what to do.

Okay no problem, glad you've got it fixed. 🙂

    Even the experts can have the odd hiccup, on my son’s cluster on refitting , the needles didn’t return to zero and the fuel gauge reading looked suspect.Took it back the next day and the boss/owner stripped and redid it and double checked it before giving it back within 90 mins.

    A good company is how they deal with any issues.

    Indeed, the gauge needle issue is a concern. So far I've not personally had any trouble putting them back on correctly, and I'm not really quite sure why some people struggle so much with it and mess it up, but I'm conscious that I'd be in a tricky situation if I ever did manage to mess it up, and I'm eager to get some test equipment as soon as I possibly can so that I can double check before returning them.
