Title: No mfd, no auto headlights, auto wipers..what's occurring?
Post by: andygo 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.

Not sure its the fuses as they tend not to heal up!
