stufarri 98 3 Cars Posted May 3, 2011 (edited) The dash lights on my currently off the road CTI now don't work for some reason but the centre dash lights - hazard & fog light etc do (it's a phase 1 CTI). I have taken the clocks out and nothing appears loose to cause the lack of light - any ideas please? The low petrol warning light does not work but the indicators and all other warning lights on the dash do. Thanks Edited May 3, 2011 by stufarri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anthony 1,002 Posted May 3, 2011 Do you mean the dial illumination when the headlights are on isn't working? If so, check the dimmer on the underside of the steering column - if that's broken or disconnected then you'll have no dash cluster or heater dials illumination.

Mikey S 29 1 Cars Posted May 4, 2011 Do you mean the dial illumination when the headlights are on isn't working? If so, check the dimmer on the underside of the steering column - if that's broken or disconnected then you'll have no dash cluster or heater dials illumination. As Anthony said, but it you unplug the dimmer switch and bridge both the wires the dash lights should come on with the headlights. If they dont then check the feeds to the dimmer switch.

stufarri 98 3 Cars Posted May 5, 2011 Thanks - I'll check that. It seems funny that the low fuel indicator light is not working too though? Can of petrol and a match anyone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pugs in Pieces 0 Posted May 9, 2011 i seem to have this problem also, also on a phase 1 cti, removed the dash assy to replace and its not been the same since. changed the dimmer but still have no dash lights or fuel or oil pressure gauge. i think mine has something to do with the old alarm circuitry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stufarri 98 3 Cars Posted May 9, 2011 The fuses were fine but were not quite making contact with the fuse board - now sorted, thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dave205 19 Posted May 10, 2011 My cj has the same problem, no dial illumination, could it simply be fuses? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
