wish it was as simple as a wrong fuse, nightmare

some more info, when i remove the fuse for the nearside side light the fuel and temp gauge work fine with the lights on but then ive lost the front side and rear tail light, doing my head in now, anyone got a match

Just wondering if anyone has ever had the same fault, when driving with the lights of both guages work fine but as soon as i turn on the lights both fuel and temp guages die. i have just fitted a set of proven working clocks to the car and the same thing happens! is there a relay of sensor or something that goes, the auto spark i went to said it was clocks, but its become apparent its not. any ideas cheers

does anyone have a pic of were the coolant temp sensor is on a 1.4s, i have searched but all the pics have been removed or deleted for some reason cheers pete

must just be the way they are, its overheating now bloody nightmare

yea ive ordered one today, hopefully no nasty suprises

thanks so much for going to that trouble for me , i feel so much happier now much appreciated

well ive contacted vw on this matter and according to them, 1999/2000 lupo's do not have bulbs as such they have led boards and will only come on when there is a problem!!! does anyone else have a 1999/2000 car that they can turn on the ignition and tell me if their engine warning light lights up? im still not convinced cheers guys

hi guys, ive just bought a 2000 1.4s lupo and replaced the oil pressure sensor as it was leaking and changed the oil. only today did i notice that when i turn on the ignition (car not started) all the relevent lights light up then go out once the car is started. only problem is the engine warning does not light up at all, is it possible that the previous owner has removed the bulb so it wont light therefore fooling the dealer i bought it of into thinking all was well, or will it only come on if there is a fault? cheers for any help

ahh that would explain it although it was reg in sept 2000
