    Default Dash Lights Dead

    Hey All,

    The dash lights in my VS have died. Is it common that all dash lights die at once or is there something more going on that I should look into?

    Cheers.

    unlikely that all have died at once. more likely that there's some sort of issue with power getting to the dash. as said, check fuse first then might need to check by putting a good globe in the back to see if it works

    This happened to my VR the dash lights went out, turned out to be a short in the wiring between the dash and rear lights

    Also check the tail lights still work as they are on the same fuse
