It sounds like a earth problem, there is a few earth wires that connect to the body behind the right hand headlight,in the engine bay, they are all brown wires,that sometimes corrode at the fixing bolt a bad earth could affect the dash lights,as could a flat battery I assume you have checked the battery, |
