is the dimmer switch ok?

on the back of the dash you will have the contacts where the blue light cups slot in, from memory you need to have all these working with clean contacts or the lot wont work. Those circuit boards are usually stuffed.

fixed a dodgy connection on one of the wires to the dimmer switch... and also used some 20th century technology by putting a couple of single LED's in to help everything out... so all sweet now!

Bill Thompson Auto rubbers have them all - even though they are in Melbourne (Ringwood to be exact), they do have mail order if you get stuck over there....
