Instrument Panel lighting.

[Dick Powell]

Hi, 

 

I appear to have lost all the lighting on my instrument panel (speedo rev counter etc.) 

 

Any ideas on where I start looking? 

 

My Mot is due in a couple of weeks, so need to sort it fairly quickly. 

 

Thanks.

Do your clearance Sonars still work ?

 

I believe they may have a common fuse with the instrument lighting.

 

Do all the warning lights come on before starting ?

All lights are LED's soldered onto the vehicle speedo's itself. Rojie is correct they will be the fuses under the drivers side panel. you have to be a contorstionist to get at them.

I haven't got parking sensors, just cameras. All the warning lights seem to be working fine.

I'll see if I can find the drivers side fuses. If they're anything like the passengers side, I'm dreading that! 🫣

The passenger side fuses are worse than the the drivers side. 

Taking the glove box out may help but I usually end up either upside down with my head where the passengers feet would be or with a flexible mirror.

Whichever way you get access to them a pair of Bent Nose Pliers will help.

Something like this - mine aren't 90 degrees but about 45.
