Dashboard illumination dead

[lancerdarryl]

Go through the obvious stuff....fuses,make sure no plugs have come loose.Cant give you a specific thing to look for I've never seen this problem before. Good luck

[lancerdarryl]

Good result,amazing what a reset will fix!

I was going to suggest resetting the system by disconnecting the battery.

It used to be linked to the tail lights, if your dash went dead you knew your tail lights weren't working, replace the tail light fuse and it would all come right again.

In newer more electronically controlled cars it could be any number of things, but if even an OBD code doesn't flash, then it is a mystery of the car gremlins...

possibly a relay fault somewhere? they are usually harder to check than fuses.

How old is the vehicle battery ?
A bettery thats on its way out can cause all kinds of silly errors

For Supercheap Auto club membera they have a special 20 percent of all Century Ultra Hi Performance batteries in all stores, 5-7 pm Wednesday 27 September only. Check store times . Not sure if it's valid through pickup on the website and being logged in. Great opportunity to get a 75D23L

Apparently if you aren't a member yet it's $5 to join, but you get $10 credit today so you're in fact $5 ahead! You can use that extra $5 on your 20 percent discounted Century 75D23L .

I'll be popping in, got some credit plus more to be used only tomorrow from 5-7.

Also I saw somewhere if you spend $20 or more you'll get a free gift.

Great opportunity to get a 75D23L

Is this a good battery to have? Just had a quick look and it looks/ sounds pretty good.. My battery may be on it's way out, so might look at picking one up!

Also, anyone know if the Club Member's thing tonight will bring the discounted price ($176) down even further??


Cheers

[bumblebee]

Yes the 75D23L is a great battery to have
I doubt you will get it much cheaper then $176

Cheers for the info bumblebee

Was just wondering, what exactly the deal is with these Club Members nights, because the batteries, etc. are already on special, so is there extra/ specific items on sale only for the night, additional to these?? I've never been to one, but will go check it out tonight, i think

[bumblebee]

They usually have deals just for those few hours.
Its usually worth going to and have at least a look around
Never know what you might find

Im at supercheapauto now
Just ran their "battery selector dudad" on the shelf and picked the lancer cj
The only battery it says that they have to fit is the 75D23LMF from century
I just checked with staff
I can get it for $151 plus $10 fitting

[burfadel]

That's an exceptionally good price!
