Centre display

Simple question, does the display still function without the radio head unit installed? Just noticed last night that it's dead.

Yep. Temperature and time should still be there.

Thanks. Bugger, means I've got a problem with it or fuse or cable then.

Yeah, my display shows time and temperature and now says "RENAULT" on the left hand side because it no longer has any information (track number, radio station etc) to read.

 

[benkay]

The "RENAULT" will be generated by an aftermarket steering wheel control adaptor.

Ah yeah, the CONNECTS2.

Wonder if there is anyway you can alter what that says.

I've also removed the steering column control stick too, surely this can't cause it not to function?

Will do brother!

Anyone point me in the right direction before I attempt to remove the upper dash (with roll cage in so not looking forward to it). Situation:

- all main dash display lights on and working.
- interior roof light working
- central locking and heater button backlights working
- NO heater/fan dial backlight (I assume there is meant to be)
- NO centre console display backlight but the display is working.
- have checked the fuses, all OK
- have checked internal connectors on passenger side connected properly, OK

...Any ideas, or is it simply the bulbs that are shot, but all at the same time???

Thanks

does your radio work or have you removed it?

Have removed it, left it disconnected.

Oh I had this problem with my clock same as yours no backlight wasn't the bulbs or fuses and the radio didn't work after I did the dash swap

Did you just live with it, or manage to fix it?

 

[Fudge]

I managed to fix it I had disconnected one of the earths or shorted one of the wires for the dash I imagine if you've got a roll cage going through it that might have done the same

I've got a dash Dover, but the dash did get swapped out any way. Time to get the multimeter out and check against the pin out diagram. Thanks for clarifying

"Dash Dover" ....lol, bloody auto correct, "Dash dodger"

Have you checked the 2 back light bulbs for the clock?

 

[eon172]

IIRC, only way to get to them is via dash removal, was hoping to eliminate everything else before that as it was a b**ch to put back last time.

 

[loggyboy]

Itss only top dash, takes 5 mins.
