I had a massive light problem (black tape etc) which has all been fixed but my dash light does not work, how easy is this to change and could ti be somethign else, I have a new light switch panel, and checked the fuses in the foot well

erm, sorry to sound patronizing and pointing out the obvious but have you tried pressing the up button on the lightbulb switch on the right hand console?

just a thought.

if not, you have to take the whole center dash console out and in that there are 3/4 light bulbs that twist into the dash itself. these are easy to replace but not sure where to get hold of them.

Oh thanks amte and yes I had pressed the up and down arrow (incase it was wired wrong)

 

Hmm so if there is 3/4 bulbs, unlickly they all blew?

ah this is true...erm anyone else?

Have you made sure that all connectors are in place firmly on the back of the cluster? there are 3 block connectors, 2 on left as yyour looking and 1 on right, and also another one that should be attached top left on the side mate.

I check tonight, does anyone know what connnections control these lights?

Has the dash cluster been taken apart at all, if it has check the two screws that hold it together at the bottom were put back in because they are the power feed to the rear illimination.

The dash has been taken out to put a UK speedo cover on (and put the speedo at 10mph instead of 0)

 

So this could be it?

Yes, most likely, the two brass coloured screws have to be removed BEFORE the cluster will come apart, if not put back the back lights will not work.

IS that the 2 big screws that are behind the light panel?
