Update on this. It wasn,t poor connections on the dashboard so still looking for help if anyone has had similar problems. Also the temp guage works and the dealer quote was £450 not £250 and thats just parts. Should read stealer not dealer.

We are just outside Norwich, its either a 52 or 03 plate can't remember which cos both the boys have them.

Hi all, Not been on here for a while but have a question that hopefully someone can help with. My sons Fabia has a few problems with the dash display, firstly neither the temp or fuel gauges are registering anything (they are not moving from zero) and the trip computer display will not switch away from its default position using the switch on the stalk. Anyone had this problem at all, is it likely to be poor connections on the dash connector as with other faults that I've seen on the forum? The local dealer quoted £250 for the dash ECU, I know from experience that they don't do fault finding and will just keep changing bits until they are lucky enough to find the faulty assembly by which time you the owner are saddled with a huge bill. Hope someone can help save him some money. Cheers Kevin

Sounds like I'm going to need that good luck. Just had a quick look at the dials they dont light up at all except dipped light symbol when dipped is on, no displays present and rev counter is stuck at just under the 1000rpm point. Also just pushed car out of drive to get mine in, leaving ignition on whilst missus did the steering and the dash lit up. Car then started and we were able to move car under its own steam and park up, once parked up and switched off we were back to not starting again??? Thanks for the suggestions so far, think I know what I'll be doing saturday now! -

Thanks for the suggestion Big Jase, but tried other key. Not even getting coil light up on dash when switching on. -
Hi all havent been on for a while but hoping someone can help. My sons Fabia 1.9 diesel will not run, when turning on ignition there are no lights coming up on dash at all, engine will turn over and start but will not run any longer than a few seconds. I suspect something may have blown a fuse. Any ideas?

A good 11.5 mile run today, think I might be okay for the GNR now! Two weeks of gentle training to go.

Some of the performances in the Paralympics are truly amazing. Unfortunately Channel 4's coverage doesn't quite live up to it!
-
Love the car. Nice moody picture.
-
Not too shabby at all, I would be more than happy with that sort of time.

According to Harry's Mountain Heroes on ITV, Sizewell beach is in Norfolk!!!

Yeh I know, Norfolk isn't ideal for fell running!! I have taken part in The Four Inns walk every year for the last 14yrs or so in the Peak District and we have got our time down to 11hrs 18mins over the last few years without running. The fell runners complete in just over 6hrs, so I aim to run some of it next year and see what difference it makes to our time. The Crossbay Run looks interesting, hard work I bet!
-
<p>My number for the GNR is 35774, hoping to complete in around 2hrs. Would love to have a go at fell running sometime as I already take part in hill walking events. I wish you luck Superbfan its my 1st half marathon for over 25 yrs so will be interesting, I've also heard that the crowds are fantastic and really help you along the way. I certainly won't be walking home after the finish.

Started running again recently after 25 years ish and running in the Great North Run in three weeks time.
-
Running 5 miles in North Wales is a little different to 5 miles in Norfolk! They have these strange hilly bits? Knackered now.
-
Anyone interested in Norfolk may be Kings Lynn or Ely area meet?

Probably need to start a new thread cos this one was from 2011. If you want to start a new one we can see what interest there is. I would certainly be interested depending on date. -
Should be interesting, so here goes... This is a Facebook game to see who reads posts or just trolls. So if you read this, leave one word on how we met. Only one word, then copy this to your wall so I can leave a word for you. Please don't put a word and not copy
