So, started her up this morning and a dead dashboard. No gauges or warning lights and boot release button dead. is that all protected with the same fuse ? Anyone else encountered the same ?

Thanks

I’ve only ever had Chimaeras but perhaps the Griffith also has the utterly useless button around knee level that cuts out all the dash gauge lighting?

If it's a Serpentine engine check main fuse near battery inc holder screws and terminal security 80A IIRC

It does, but that's all it turns off .

Won't affect the rest of the electrical equipment, gauges and boot release will still operate.

It’s very useful when hammering round a race track at night. Turn dash lights off and you see the corner apexes far easier.
It’s the only logical conclusion I can come up with wink

Same fuse I believe, no 16 on a Chim.
