Dash Display

Hi guys

Since yesterday the dash display that shows mpg, temp etc is not working, it works if the doors are open and it displays the ok on startup, but as soon as i close the doors and the car is running the whole display is blank, nothing at all, however if you press the button under the speedo to check service etc, that all works, but then it goes off again....any ideas????

Thanks

one of the sensors might be out?

Where would this sensor be, what exactly am i looking for and would i need to remove the clocks to get this sorted??

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Just a thought

Have you checked the on/off switch for the display. It is on the bottom of the wiper stalk - like a rocker switch.

Hope this is the problem

Thanks a lot for that mate, it did the trick, I didnt even know that button was there.

Really appreciate your help on this.

Merry Xmas and a happy new year to you.
