Hi Guys,

Just picked up the beast today, driving it back.. all going well, then all the gauges died. Seemed to come back to life when I flipped the wiper switch...go figure (to quote an American)

Any obvious tips before I start following every wire and pulling off switches?

TY

Best advice Joe...get a wireing diagram.......dont just go pulling wires off.......when you say all ..do you mean all...rev counter?......so it would need to be a common point....possible earth..fuses...but wireing diagram will show detail.....wiper switch could just be a coincidence unless you can replicate fault.....Steve

Yep including rev counter. Speedo works of course

Looking at my S3 diagram there is one fuse thats common to the guages on a 2 way fuse unit....not sure where it is i would pull down instrument panel and check fuses..its not uncommon for them to not make a good contact...pull each one out clean it and the prongs where they plug into..Steve
