Peugeot 306 dials not working

[gcol]

It's the wife's car so I'm not too fussed, but her dials (speedo, tacho, fuel) have ceased functioning. The temp still works though. Any ideas chaps?

 

[^neo^]

Probably an earth come off somewhere, either behind the dash or in the engine bay.
Could also be a duff instrument panel

Good luck finding it!

I take it it's all electrical then? No flexible drives any more huh? Bummer.

It has to be something common to all three,such as a printed circuit failure on the instrument pod. For speed,engine speed and fuel level senders to all fail together is very unlikely.

Hmmm. Do you think there would a be a fuse for the instrument panel?

 

[yes2mud]

There could be a fuse involved,but your temp.gauge still works,it's often that the fuel and temp.gauges have a common feed through a voltage stabiliser.This stops the fuel sloshing in the tank giving erratic readings.It may be quicker to phone your local Peugeot agents,as you could have a known problem.

there are some pretty good 306 forums that are very active (more so than many other car makes) Im sure someone on there will tell you exactly what it is.

Hi Did you ever get to the bottom of the speedo rev counter and fuel gauge failure as I have exactly the same problem?
