If the BMW X5 e70 instrument cluster is not functioning, the issue may be due to a poor ground connection or a blown fuse. To access the fuse box, look to the left of the steering wheel and search for a small seam or crack on the dashboard. Using a screwdriver or prybar, you should be able to open this panel. Inside, you will find various fuses. On the back of the panel you removed, there will be a diagram indicating the purpose of each fuse. If the diagram is not present, you can refer to the vehicle's owner's manual. Once you have identified the necessary fuse, remove it. Check if the thin metal strip connecting the two sections of the fuse is intact; if it's broken, the fuse is faulty and needs replacement. If the strip is undamaged, the fuse is still good and can be reinserted. Replacement fuses are relatively inexpensive, typically costing around $10.

I own a BMW 5 Series with eDrive technology. While driving, the display on the instrument cluster suddenly went dark and did not return. Additionally, various warning lights are appearing accompanied by a beeping sound during driving. I'm wondering if this issue is related to a malfunction in the instrument cluster or a blown fuse. Can you advise on the cost of a new instrument cluster if a replacement is necessary?
