I have a 2002 and some of my dash warning lights are glowing. They are not on full so I have some kind of electrical problem and was wondering if anyone had had a similar fault.
I think the lights are the ignition, oil and low fuel - all glowing at probably 30% brightness. When I pull the handbrake the diesel glow plug light comes on faintly - this is a 1.2 petrol!
I suspect it is a binnacle fault because they also come on when I try to change the time. They go off approx. 5 -10 secs after ignition is turned off and I get out of the car.
Car is running fine for a 112,000 mile Punto.
I have considered changing the binnacle from a scrapped car but will this give the mileage of the donor vehicle? And will the speedo etc work correctly? I am not sure whether different engines etc had different gearing.
Hope someone can offer some help on this one?
