[shahidocean]

guys my milometer doesn't display anything , is this a hard fix, any diagrams or instructions will be greatly appreciated.

Dunno about that, does it light up? maybe just the bulb gone

[Paul-R]

It's outside my sphere of experience. Can you post a photo? This might help.

[shahidocean]

its in the centre of the dashboard where the mileage of the car shows and trips etc. here's a close up



the full thing look like this ...



heard somewhere that it could be a fuse ?
more likely a bulb behind the display any help/diagrams to remove the instrument panel would be appreciated?

[ken newbold]

82836, so what's wrong with it?

[shahidocean]

the milometer has gone blank its probably a bulb

[Paul-R]

If you get close to the instrument display (ignition on) can you see the ghostly figures of the miles? If so then it must be a bulb or supply to the bulb.

[shahidocean]

its totally blank i think mate i will check

[ken newbold]

I think if you fit a new bulb you'll find everything is ok.

2 screws in the top of the instrument panel bezel. 1 screw in the bottom of the bezel accessed by removing the steering column shroud. 2 screws in the bottom of the instrument panel itself then hey presto, she's out.
I might be able to post you a pic of the back of the panel tomorrow to show you which bulb it is.

In addition to previous info, there's also a screw at the top of the instrument cluster itself. Here's the back of the panel showing which bulb illuminates the odometer.

cheers ken what type of bulbs are they in there and is that panel working and spare. message me i'll take it off you if I need it.

[ken newbold]

They're the tiny "grain of wheat" bulbs.

It is a spare but not much use to you as from memory I think the tape that connects the centre temp display is broken.

[shahidocean]

cheers ken

[shahidocean]

ken do you know what part those bulbs are

[ken newbold]

Nope, send me your address and I'll send you a few, but won't be till Monday.
