Just had a new clutch fitted to my T350. That part of the car is working beautifully now. However the dash is not working now. I had the dash done up by Racing Green in April last year. I was wondering if there was something else I had forgotten to do to get the dash working? I am in Australia so I don't have a dealer to consult. Any advice welcome.

Getting a new clutch in should have no affect on the dash.. The dash can pop (so I beleive) from disconnecting the battery incorrectly (remove negative first, reattach positive first)

Is the dash completely dark? If so it sounds like a fuse or a connection.

Maybe the ribbon cable(s) have been pulled out of the clock pack or the dash ECU. There is one for the speedo & one for the tacho. There is no dedicated cable for the lcd display.

I have replaced this fuse but it had no effect. The dash is still not working.

Might need to check if there is an earth to the gearbox. Had this with a van.
