All my instruments have died

[theironduke]

Well, all of th pretty guages and the heater fan have just stopped.

I thought it would be random for all of them (guages and heater) to be on the same supply but then remembered it's a TVR....

Any ideas?

I've still got everything thing else bar-

dash warning lights

speedo

tacho

oil pressure

temp

fuel

clock (well, thats never worked!)

heater fan (also the LEDs on the wheels don't light up like usual)

That sounds like a blown fuse - have you checked the fuses? It all seems to use the same 'live', and I noticed that today when trying to get my lights working on the Tacho and speedo (and the other gauges light up no prob!!)

One other thing - have you pressed the magic button by accident by your left knee?

Best of luck!

Fuse.

There is a button located underneath the steering (plasticty) surround where your left knee usually rubs against that when depressed it turns all the lights off!

I have the same problem but the lights dim when I put the heater blower on so having checked the fuses I can only assume that theres a fault somewhere behind the dash.

[Marlboro]

Check the condition of the 40Amp fuses located near the starter motor. I had one corroded by water ingress that caused odd electrical faults.

Worth a look.

Earth wires on chassis, behind dash and under transmission tunnel need a clean and retighten up. Check.

sorry, not had time to look yet, going to the car to take the slave cylinder off tomorrow so I'll look then

FIXED!!! Was just the 15A fuse had blown
