ok... need some help here please!
Got in the car this morning, 09 petrol CLC. The main instrument panel was dead when I switched on. No rev counter, no speedo, no lights, no center display, nada. The car drove ok and the exterior lights were working, indicators, etc. Also had power to the radio and air con unit. I was thinking fuse.
Took it out at lunch and suddenly had every warning light on main instrument panel alight... main beam, both indicator arrows, srs light, eml light, etc., but still no revs or speedo or center display. To confuse me even more, these lights stayed on when I switched off and removed the key!
So, now I have fuse 42 removed (instrument cluster) and the car at home, and a puzzled brain.
Wiring issue, or is there a chip somewhere gone wonky?
Any ideas where to look or what to check, before I call an auto electrician and break open my wallet?
Thanks
