Outside temp gauge in centre cluster!
« on: 29 January 2011, 17:43 »
Hi,i have a v6 4motion on a 51 plate and there are only two things that are faulty with it. The first is that the lights on buzzer does not work and the second is that the outside temp gaugue in the centre cluster just shows --:-c  Would the faults be both connected to the door micro switch or would that be the light buzzer alone? I'd be very gratefull for any help on this....cheers Paul

P.S The puddle lights,interior lights and door locks all work ok!

Is the sensor under the front bumper connected?

Try doing a cluster output test in vagcom and check for any faults.  :undecided:

Would a test at a dealer be expensive? I wouldn't have clue about prices?
