Any ideas where I can find one of these little beauties?
 
Think its a rectifier (fitted to back of dash) and probably the cause of my main clocks not working.
 
Think the part number reads: 700Y but difficult to be sure.
 
Any help appreciated Wink

It's a voltage regulator, have you tried Maplin?

It's a TCA700Y positive 10v 0.22A voltage regulator. Not readily available. Maplin do a similar one but the terminals are the wrong way round so the heatsink screw needs packing out.

It looks as though %20 - www.powercomponents.nl have them.
or quote from an Audi site
"LM78M10 or LM342-10 would work just fine (and you can cross-reference
these numbers to other manufacturers as well). The only caveat is that
the pin-outs are reversed on these parts (input, GND, output). So, when
mounting these on the cluster you need to do so with the part's face-side down to match the flex circuit's pin-connections."
Edit:

Done some googling
available in the UK £65 each!!!!!!!
available in Ireland 39.90 euros each!!!!!!!
Taking the p*ss a bit for an 80p item.

Stick with reversing a LM7810,these are good for up to 1A using a metal spacer to transfer the heat, if you haven't picked one up elsewhere.
