Dashboard lights

Mar 20th, 2006, 17:52

For some reason, quite a few of the dashboard lights on my new old 940 Wentworth dont seem to be working. I have removed three of the little ones from the dashboard (lighting control, rheostat, and fog lights illumination) but it looks like the one in the heater/air con isn't working. Taking it out, this unit seems sealed so not sure if you can change the lights in it???? Also, how do you change the light in the auto selector (the one which shows p, R, N, D,1,2)? Thanks as usual guys!

to change the gear selector bulb, take the ashtray out and you'll see screws holding the surround in place, undo them and you'll be able to get access.

Hi Fightgear did changing some of those bulbs fix them? If a load of them suddenly stopped working is it possible a fuse has blown? Probably there is only 1 fuse for all the interior lights / etc. but it might be worth checking before you go through the hassle of getting access to all the bulbs (which incidentally I can't help with, sorry

)

Hi Guys
Will try the screws behind the ashtray tomorrow. I found the two under the handbrake but didn't see the ones behind the ashtray. Thanks
As for the fuse idea..... wish it had been that but sadly I tried that option first and it was fine. I checked the bulbs when I pulled them and they all seemed blackened and missing a philament. Cheers anyway Pete!
