speedo and interior lights

Postby vinny » Fri Aug 13, 2010 11:18 am

hello again, my 95 mivec speedo and trip has stopped working, not sure where the sender is? and since i have had the car the interior lights have not worked, the map lights work, and the door sensors seem to work as it beeps with the keys in the ignition when the door is opened, any help would be gratefully appreciated
thanks

Check for a 'dead' fuse on the fuse box underneath the stearing wheel,and in the engine room.Take them one after one and check if there is some of them 'dead'.
You can also remove the speedo and reconect it because maybe its not connected properly to the connector.

All the interior lights are failing?,for example,the ash tray one,lighter,or the battery usage gauge,etc,or just the speedometer,rpm,etc.If so,try disconnecting the speedometer unit and check for bad contacts,if ALL lights are failing,then i cant figure it out,im a newbie sorry. :cry:
Hope you get feedback from FTO masters here :)

sorted the speedo after, it was the kph to mph chip down by the gear box, never got my interior/mirror lights to work when you open the door though, even though the door switches work and the interior map lights can be turned on manually?
