Dash lights not working

Postby crayzidane » Sun Dec 20, 2009 7:16 pm

Went to turn on the lights last night, and no dash lighting clocks,aircon etc.
Haven't checked anything yet cos iv been up 2 me eyes with shopping.
mirror light is working fine
ignition key light working fine
just all clocks and aircon buttons not coming on when i put on the headlights.
Happened to anyone?

It's fairly standard in many cars that the dash lights are on the same fuse as your rear brake lights - they want to make it very obvious to you that you have a problem as driving without brake lilghts is seriously dangerous.
