plugs in the back of the dash sound loose, it screws it up heaps. pull em half way out and see what it does ... trippy :s |

i pulled em out and then pluged em back in. still got all the same probs. i also noticed that the fuel gauge goes to full and so does the oil presure gauge. also high beams wont come on when the hedlights are on but will flash whn you pull the lever back. aswell as all that there is an odd noise from under the bonnet when i switch from headlighs to park lights.
any more sugestion would be apreciated. thanks

Have u recently changed da blinker relay? Maybe a wrong wire was plugged back into it. Or maybe one of the headlight wires is contacting with the blinker relay. Looks like u may have 2 visit da auto sparky. $$$$$$$$ cha-ching cha-ching $$$$$$$$ |
