    Electrical mystery

    Good folk

    Tdi Disco. Year 2000. The instrument lights have stopped working. Checked the fuse & it is ok. The Disco does not have a dimmer switch, so it's not the dimmer. Any ideas?

    Thanks for the replies. Through process of elimination (ok, i had to check almost every fuse!) I found that the fuse for the trailer lights had blown. Not sure why that would cause the dash lights to fail however once I replaced the fuse, it works fine.

    Thanks again everyone.

    same sort of thing happened in my 2000 fender

    everytime i'd hook the trailer up the fuse would blow


    turned out to be the hazzard switch had gone :roll: :roll:

    bypassed the switch never had a problem since
    just dont have hazzard lights [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]

    only need hazzard lights when you breakdown, and it dont so its a good thing :wink: :wink:
