Positive. Gives overall mileage, then choice of two separate journey distances. Different to your posh 2006 beast! Incidentally, your post #17 - showing the blue/green plug pin-outs - mine are different. Methinks 40 pin. Just off out to buy a new test lamp - current (!) one boasts a screwdriver...

No doubt. Thankfully, 5 months yet. Mind you, the way I'm going.....!

And that's what I'm trying to avoid.... I've got a leccy bill to worry about! I'm trying to find a few hours in a row to try the suggestions mentioned. I'd just removed all the dash earlier when a neighbour wandered past with her dog, who's "been very poorly lately and cost nearly two thousand...

Anybody tell me what the letters/numbers represent, please?

Traditional. Did think about swapping but never got around to it.

Yes, thanks - I'd seen this. There are lots of 'tube videos regarding the same sort of problem, but none have sorted the problem yet. The bulb laddo features on this particular vid - assuming the Yank version of the car uses the same unit, just on the "wrong" side of the car! - is the...

It's a thought, but I'd like to think Mr.Honda would have considered my 2 a.m. February journey on the M1, and the considerable effect that one bulb failing and taking out the rest would have had on me!

.....or even "affected".....

Yes, all proper voltage. I tried the old "set" back in t'other day, replacing the original 2 duff 'uns with 2 of the new. Same result - no dial lights. Thought about replacing the 2 new with the original pair that didn't work....but genuinely can't recall if I did so now. Maybe disturbed with a...

Just needed side lights and wipers on - no problem. Radio works. Windows work. Front and rear lights work. Headlights and full beam work. Brake lights work. Sunroof works. Everything works except the dial illumination......but...... Got back home, parked up, took the dog out in the rain. He...

Honda dealer, and all checked with a battery prior to all this farce. No 14v jobs.

Cheers, Spectric.... The in-car fusebox is a right pain! Underneath the steering wheel, at the side of the central console. The only way I can get to it is by keeping the passenger door open, sliding on my right side across the seat and central tray, before twisting the top of my torso into the...

There isn't one. Not on this model. Messed around for another couple of hours yesterday afternoon, and roped in a pal of mine who's used to sorting out electrical stuff on mowers and the like. Basically he checked everything I'd already done, and was also none the wiser. Only thing left -...

Y'know how they say that the best ideas usually occur to you when you're on the toilet?! Well, relax....this isn't one of those! Gave up trying to understand the car as night fell, and decided to drag the dog out into the drizzle. I wasn't actually thinking about the car at all, but standing in...

Thanks, gents... In answer to your questions, in no particular order... Have got goodish Misco multimeter. Thankfully (!), this model doesn't have a dimmer for the display. (The Honda, not the multimeter!) Doubt the track problem - the whole PCB is enclosed in plastic, and has been from minute...

Thanks, Spectric... The bulbs have been in/out/turned so many times, my thumbs ache from lifting the little tabs on the blue and green multiconnectors at the top! At least I haven't got to worry about the cruise/front fog (top left) - that's empty, as are all the A/T gear jobs. Looking at your...

Perhaps I should say "any good at explaining in Noddy fashion"! In UK, Honda 2004 CRV. Changed the dashboard cluster lights as 2 of 'em had blown. Result = all the "warning" lights work - handbrake, seatbelt, SRS, oil and so on. The 4 gauges/dials work - speedo, fuel level, temp, revs - but...

It's a bloody minefield! We had no option but to cough up the £300, as it was literally 48 hours before completion. The leaseholder - some gash outfit in London - refused phone calls or personal visits....everything done by fax/bank transfer only. My argument was that for all we knew, the...

Interesting story. I've experienced two similar "officialdom" problems over the years - one happened to me, the other to my parents back in the mid-60's. My instance concerned my last move - at the eleventh hour before exchanging contracts, we were informed that our house leaseholder hadn't been...

Spurred on by our recent chat about deeds, I did actually log on to the Land Registry site last night, getting ready to cope with all the gobbledegook as is usually found on a gov.uk site. I appreciate that they are dealing with "the past" most of the time, but wouldn't you have thought that in...
