Re: Problem with dashboard display

The passenger one works, but can't get driver's one to do it. I'll have a go again tomorrow.

Re: Problem with dashboard display

Hi, thanks. Got one through a friend in the end. Finally fitted and starting great. Didn't realise how poor it was before! Now the electric windows are having a funny turn. They are only going up and down when you hold the button. They used to go up or down fully if you pressed the button and let go.

Re: Problem with dashboard display

Hi, thanks, no I haven't replaced battery yet, as thought it was the display draining it. I was convinced it turned off :?
