1997 MK3 GTI instrument cluster prblem
« on: 20 October 2011, 13:53 »
Hello, my first ever post and hoping for some advise please!

My VW Golf gti instrument cluster is very temperamental. Most of the time I have a complete power failure where I have no fuel, oil, speed or revs working. Sometimes it flicks the dials on and then they stay stuck at a certain position, then goes back to nothing.

Any ideas if it would be the whole unit thats knackered and/or is this something simple to fix etc?

Thanks.

Charlie.

Sounds like the dials are knackered. :smiley:
