Technical Indicator flashing dash lights

Stephen A500 · Feb 2, 2020

Hi guys,. My indicator RIGHT is making the ABS/temperature lights flash in sink, very dull..

I read a few posts blaming instrument panels and replacing it is a temp fix :-/ all so a few pointing at an earthing problem and one blaming the rear boot harness,. But none have been solved

Any ideas where to begin?

You need to replace it. Available for around £60 on eBay. Just get one with a lower mileage than your car. They can be upped in mileage but not reduced for obvious reasons. It’s not a temporary fix.

It’s a common fault.

Alternatively, you can send it to the man - Yellowstilo, somewhere on this forum.

Fixing yours means at least you're not buying another one that might pack up in a similar way a year from now.. and no faffing about with mileage or aligning it with your car's Body Control Module.

Hi there it is a fault with the cluster and not a earthing fault or to do with the boot. known this fault from when first started as been a det since 2011 to present. replacement of cluster is required as previously mentioned as can only go up but cant go down then proxy alignment

The indicator has stopped blinking my warning lights, but they’re still all super dim and can only be seen in the dark. Is this a MOT failure?

If say the ABS light does not come on "normally bright" at start up then yes it may fail.

They all work as they should when ignition is on and engine not running
