The fact the gauges don’t return to zero points at the fact that the permanent supply to the gauges is no longer there.

I don’t have the diagrams to hand tonight otherwise I would give you the fuse number to check. So check the fuses again - I think you have blown the one which supplies the gauges.  1988 90 Td5 NAS soft top

On a 2.4 Fuse 30 under steering wheel is permanent supply to radio, gauges, clock (has it stopped?) and interior lamps Wink

On a 2.2 it is Fuse 29.  1988 90 Td5 NAS soft top

however, I went out today and the clock started again on 3 occasions then stopped after 10 mins Question loose or burnt wire??? radio and interior lights still don't work though. All because I tried to replace interior light bulbs with LED ones, should have left well alone Sad

Remove the fuse as above, check the terminals in the fuse box for damage.

Replace the fuse with a new one to be certain it is OK.  1988 90 Td5 NAS soft top

ok so finally sorted, thanks Martin and dorsetsmith. You were correct fuse 30 was the culprit and also another fuse, however, the reason I thought the fuse hadn't blown was because the fuse diagram in the owners manual is different to the fuse diagram on the inside of the fusebox cover!!! I was looking at the manual.
