Hey guys
Went for a drive in my car to pick up some food about 30 minutes ago and turned on my headlights, they turned on but the dash didn't ? No lights on the gear lever or air con controls either ? Any ideas what could be wrong ?
Cheers

Were the speedo and tacho working? My entire dash stopped working once. Speedo, tacho, temp gauge, lights, EVERYTHING. Turned out it was the alternator. It wasn't regulating the current properly and basically shorted out all the electronics.

Had the exact same problem in a VY I once had,found all I did from memory is when I turned the lights on and the dash,switches wouldnt lightup,You know the little switch you hold down or up and it automatically adjusts the brightness,well it must of started playing up I gave it a flick and all was good.
