My hazards worked fine but not indicators. AC gone completely and all my guages completely lifeless... although the analogue clock on the dash still works.

I checked all the fuses under the dash & under the driver's seat and they look fine. I took the dashboard hub out and nothing obvious. I disconnected the batteries and still have this problem. The car starts & drives fine except for these problems

Whyatts in geraldton are going to be looking at it on wednesday anyway but i thought i would ask here as well. IF anyone has any ideas let me know as I have only owned this car for 4 weeks and it's my 1st defender so I don't know a whole lot about them.

cheers.

Check the fuses again (they may look OK so check for continuity) especially the indicator fuse, I had a short (300Tdi) at the indicator stalk that blew the fuse, gauges (fuel temp), indicators, stopped working so sounds very similar - except for the speedo etc (non electrical in the 300Tdi).

the multi plug or the earth connection to the dash may have come loose.
