No dash lights!

[richy22]

Okay got a weird one here!! Was out changing my wheels over with Dan and we noticed my rear led number plate bulb wasn't working properly. Took it out and cleaned contacts and it kind of work, then all of a sudden we notice my rear passenger side rear light go out!!

Hmm I thought, went into the car to notice all the dash is out too as well as the lights for the radio!! It's a bit dark so couldn't see any fuses that had gone so is there a relay in the bonnet that these all run on?!!

Anyone know??

Must be something to do with sidelight circuit?? Im guessing fuse under the bonnet??

Sorted..turns out it is a f**king fuse...

WTF is that supposed to mean! I could interpret that as rear sidelights...but only 1 rear sidelight was out.

Im sure it lists in the manual what that is but I dont have that here.

i noticed when my dash lights went out the fuses under the glove box were loose, just have a look at them just puch em back in and they should all kick back in

This just came up in search, I'm hoping this will fix the same issue I've just discovered!

As if this worked! I was having the exact same issues and so glad I did some forum diving to diagnose!

The only thing I'd add is that I had to change the other "sidelight" fuse - number 26 rather than 27 the line above is pointing to.
