Heater control panel 'issue'

I have a '96 318iS coupe and it has the digital climate control panel. I seem to have an intermittent fault that causes the display to either go completely blank or to dim. If it does either the fan stops running.

I have checked the wires inthe back of the control panel, and all seems fine. Any odeas where to look next?

thanks,

Rob NZ

Would this be the capacitor issue?

Certainly sounds like it.

Well I changed the capacitor today and the result so far is that the heater doesn't seem to cut out any more but the LED display is now permanently blank. I couldn't find a .47u so used a 6.8 not even close but the literature JB sent suggested the specific value wasn't too inportant. I'll try to source a .47 and try again....

Any chance you could post these instructions - I have a related problem.
