No mfd, no auto headlights, auto wipers..what's occurring?
« on: February 27, 2012, 07:16:09 pm »
Driving along suddenly noticed no dash lights, no mfd at all, auto headlights not working properly - eg going off with ignition- auto wipers going from slow to fast when stopped at lights. Drove home with all these faults, left car for 30 mins and they healed up.

Just a bit worried its going to happen again. Any ideas chaps?

The common response will be to get it scanned.

I'd also check your main earthing points are in good condition.
