No Dashboard lights inside Polo tdi 2007
Hi all. May I ask some assistance. Got a polo 2007. ALL the Dash lights are dead (Illuminating lights that is)
The indicator lights/abs/ecu etc comes on when turning the ignition, just no dash/ref/speedo light. also no aircon or radio lights.
I suspect this is a fuse, but will only be able to check tomorrow. anyone know what number fuse it is so I can sommer buy whilst still at work?
Any and all help appreciated!

Next to the light switch there is a dimmer. Try that. If not, could be a fuse.

Dimming light or fuse, as I can't believe that all the dash lights would go at once...

Has to be a fuse as the dimming light does nothing. Radio light, aircon light, dialer lights, ref counter lights and needles are all dead. Completely. In other words, I cant see the cockpit when flying the plane...
Checked all the fuses and they seem fine though. I'm taking it to the dealer on Monday to have a look.

Mmm - Did you pull all the fuses out? Unfortunately, as I discovered the hard way, the fuse diagram on the Polo's is useless and most of the time hopelessly wrong...EliteOp wrote:Has to be a fuse as the dimming light does nothing.

Surely the dashboard lights wont be on a fuse of their own? They're usually shared with something like the interior convenience light, clocks, etc. The dashboard lights wouldn't even draw 1 amp. I'd say the dimmer switch may be busted.
My other car's a french maid with a large derriere.

Could be together with cigarette lighter etc. Only way to find out is to remove each one and check
