Well Mattg, I have a Disco II Td5, I had dash lights out and a lose console
You will need to remove the dash cover, remove the whole speedo assembley and replace the little grey backed bulbs, very small little blighters, they work off the back circuit board, no dimber controls, just bulbs, do you have a rovacraft outlet near you
Or try viewing this Land Rover Owner • View topic - Disco 2 dash bulbs (http://www.lro.com/forum3/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=24695) hope it helps..

I'd be looking at the back light globes. From memory the warning lights are LEDs but the back lights are still traditional globes which do die.

If it is the same globe that is in the air cond head unit, then jaycar don't have a plug in LED solution, you need to remove the globes from the base and wire in the LEDs.

LEDs with the correct base fitted can be found on e-bay.

Matt, when this happened to me it was a fuse. I can't remember which one off the top of my head. So before you take you instrument binnacle out, check the fuses.
