Hi all hope all is well

I’m having an issue with my fab . I have no lights on my instrument cluster the air bag light is on and I also have multiple non communication faults to the instrument cluster (airbag,engine etc) . I sent the instrument cluster off for testing but there was nothing wrong with it and all fuses I have checked are fine . Any help is really appreciated

Regards Jay

If none are operational it could be a bad earth or bad connection to cluster. I had problems with my octavia with random warning lights on and some lights that should be not. I removed cluster inspected it and cleaned contacts and reconnected and it was fine. When I removed it the connector at rear looked as though it had been pulled out slightly but that may have been me when I removed cluster. Not sure if there is a fuse dedicated to the cluster. If there is check its not coroded or loose and replace with a new one anyway. I used a youtube vid to remove and check my octy. This is the one I think for the fabia. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCWOOVvNcUY

My car was also pretty damp due to leaky door seals. The live feed and earth are in the smaller connector

I am sure you already know but disconnect battery before removing the cluster.
