justslater Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 Good evening all! 1st of all, apologise if this has come up before, I'm new to this site, had a look and couldn't find any info on the problem I have.Im currently on my 2nd ford galaxy (09)and up until now it's been absolutely fine evenue with 330k on the clock.recently, the entire dash board has stopped working, and so have the back lights for the radio and heater unit. Tho both still work, you just can see what temp or fan speed it's on, nor the radio station you are listening to.Every now and then, the dash would light back up, and start working for a short time before going back out again. Its becoming a little annoying, if only because the speed, rev counter, fuel and temp gauge all stop working too.Has anyone else had this issue, or indeed heard of any fault that is 'common'?I've done the usual, look and change fuses, had a general rummage around for anything that looks loose, but to no avail.kindest regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
