Dial lighting fail
Noticed on the way home tonight the lights behind speedo/temp/fuel have died Sad I'll have a proper look at the weekend when I have time, but has anyone got any general ideas what it could be? Haven't had this go before, hopefully just a bulb.



Cheers.

As more than one bulb has gone I would think a fuse or maybe a live feed to the dials.
