S40: - Instrament Panel Lighting!

MSFMX · Sep 20th, 2008, 22:25

i have a 2001 S40 and Love it, i just recently started having issues with the instrument panel, lighting issues though, everything else works fine! i took it apart and all of the bulbs are good, but the night time in dash lighting wont work either. (gear shift ac lights etc) All the fuses are good, and it came on for a brief moment last night, but now it''s dark, the last thing i putin the car before it went wack was a manual boost controller, but that shouldnt do anything..? took it out and panel still wont light. any help? thanks!

A loose wire just like mine. Annoying isn't it. I've sorted one by crimping the wires back together, now i've got the dash back on i've got another intermitent light. Aaaaarrrgghhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
