Default Info screen getting hard to read

I have an '01 95 SE wagon and I am starting to have difficulty reading my LED info screen some of the lights have stopped working. Anyone have experience replacing one or possibly fixing. Becoming difficult reading time and that sort of thing.

ive seen on ebay some guy who can reprogram it for like 15 bucks when pixels start acting up...i guess it was a popular thing to happen to the 95's....check ebay for 95 radio or etc. and it should pop up

Thanks guys. I searched SID fix andI found a link that gives the step by step directions. Now I just need to find the time and muster up the confidence to take it apart.

Don't count on the DIY SID fix to be permanent...I'm quite seriously waiting for the shop near me to get an LCD repair station. That cable is too easy to mess up.
