I'm fed up with not seing lovely orange gauges!
I checked all fuses under the dash on passenger side, but they're all ok.
I measured voltage on dash clock pins(GND, live, lights switch). There is live, but no switch. Warning lights are all working fine, so only ilumination lights are not working.

Here's a picture from Haynes manual:

Can anyone tell me the location of that relay and switch?

Any other guess what could be at fault here?

Help much apriciated! :)

Not specifically checked clio but in my experience the rheostats have been attached to the thumbwheel dimmer.

^^Thanks.

All sorted now! :D I'm no so sure what was actually at fault, but I guess I had a little of that Renault luck, when things get fixed by themselves. :lol:

I also changed gauge needles while I was at it.
