Flashing dash/console lights.

Featured Replies

Hi All,

I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction with regards to fixing my console lights. (Bear with me I'm not sure of the correct terminology of some things.)

When the headlights are turned on the dash is normally illuminated so you can see the speedo, clock etc as well as the hazzard warning light button, the window controls on the door and the buttons for air con, rear window heater etc. (the backlighting of the heater dials are not affected)

Over the weekend these lights have been flashing on and off intermiterntly.

Have tried to research this myself but have been unsuccessful so far. I had a look in the manual for the fuse asscoiated with this and had a look at a few (can't remember the fuses I checked off the top of my head). All seemed ok.

From the way the lights are flashing on and off I'm guessing that a loose connection somewhere is a likely cause, however do not know where! The dimmer dial also felt quite hot when this first started but has been fine since.

If anyone could shed some light on what may be the cause or what I should try in order to diagnose the fault I would be very grateful.

Thanks

Vikki

I had the same problem a while ago, I got myself a headlight switch from someone on here and its been fine since, the switch came with the dimmer so I cant be sure which was faulty, the main switch or dimmer
