Dash backlights not working

Recommended Posts

Hey everyone,

 

Finally bought my first C yesterday. An M plate aqua blue pearl metallic VR6.

 

How ever on the drive back(as it got dark) I noticed that nothing was illuminated on the dash. I'm thinking first thing that needs investigating is the feed from the switch and roller switch.

 

Anybody had any similar experiences?

 

Cheers,

 

Dave

i take it you've tried moving the instrument lighting rheostat.........if you haven't then this is probably the "problem".......as i've "lost" all my dash lights just by fumbling for the H/light switch

Yeah, I've spun the rheostat up and down an infinite number of times.

I'll have a closer investigation tomorrow.

 

Cheers for you suggestions anyway.
