Question
I have 2 problems.
1-my instrument cluster shows the number (digital) all not clear.
2-rear right power window won't work. i tried to bring it up or down. it won't work

Any answers...

Answer
1.  I don't understand what you mean by "number (digital)all not clear".  Are you missing pixels?  Is it displaying garbage?  Is there nothing displaying?

2.  Could be a connector or the switch or the motor or the controller.  If the window doesn't work from either the rear door or the drivers door switches, then it's likely not the switch.  You'll need to remove the door panel and do diagnostics inside the door.

Not an easy fix.  Give thought to how much it bothers you before deciding to invest in it.
