Speedo needles flickering

Followers

18 May, 20242 yr

Hi guys

Been a long time since I was on here but have an issue I'd like to see if anyone else has had.

My MK1 VRS has been in dry storage for the last 2 years and I've just got it out and back on the road etc. Besides a few other niggles, the Speedo and Tacho needles randomly flicker when driving. I'm sure I've read before there's been issues with the voltage regulator on the back of the cluster but I may be imagining it!

Has anyone seen this before?

Cheers

Rich

Gear shifting issues
Skoda Fabia Mk2 (2007-2014)

Gear shifting issues

swedeytodd · 12 January, 20215 yr

Hi all, hoping for a bit of advice for for 2009 Mk2 Fabia 3 (1.9TDI). My gear shifts have been getting a bit harder recently, struggle to get into reverse and first (reverse is worse), but not all the time. The gear lever doesn't self centre to neutral like it should. There's no crunching when changing gears and I haven't noticed a difference in the clutch. Bit of searching on the forum came up with this for the linkages: https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/

Electronic Gremlins - are we just unlucky?

Liteboy · 14 May14 May

We bought our Scala Monte Carlo Edition 1.5 tsi back in December and from late January it has had both mechanical problems and electronic gremlins. The mechanical problem have mostly been sorted, new rear discs and pads that were making noises like a wheel bearing was rumbling, the gearbox has had a software update and a reset (it's still not perfect). And the road noise is just the high dB tyres and lack of sound insulation. The electronic gremlins were put down to a failing 12v battery which

2023 Fabia issues (heater fan resistors, fuel flap, reverse light, brake light)

briscaF1 · 2 hours ago2 hr

Hi, Partner acquired this 2023 1.0 Fabia last year. So far, the resistor pack for the fan has packed (!) up and the actuator for the fuel flap needed replacing. These were done under warranty. She's had the car back from its MOT and warranty work and now there's a light on the dash saying "check brake lights." The light on the nearside is out and there's only one reversing light, on the offside. Are the rear lights all LED? No bulb I can change? If it is a bulb, how do I get to it? Are th

Rear windscreen wash issue
Skoda Fabia Mk3 (2014-2021)

Rear windscreen wash issue

KevP · 10 May10 May

Hi. I have a Fabia 3 estate with an issue with the rear windscreen wash. It doesn’t work - I can hear the motor working and it’s leaking inside somewhere so is probably just a simple disconnect from the tubing. How do I access this point ? Is it hidden within the high level brake light ? (I think this is the case but have no idea how to access it to put it back together. ) I’ve tried searching the forum but can’t see this question answered within it. Thanks.
