Best bet is to try new bulbs for starters,only cheap from vw. Pop the side trims from around the switches either side of the dials,remove various self tappers,remove fascia,remove self tapper either side of dials,pull dials out and unclip speedo cable etc. Pull em out and the bulbs just twist out.

Cheer mate, will rip it apart to tonight! or at least have a look. Spent most of yesterday getting a new battery and working out what all the loose wires in the stereo slot were for. There were about 15 wires, none of which were connected to any speakers. All works now though and sanity has been restored. Thanks again Rob
I did move it to its brightest. Basically its lowest is off and brightest is dull. Guess it is just a little more quirky than my A3 1.8T Quattro. I am sure I'll get used to it. Just needs a good sort out and tune up.
my girlfriend has the same problem, on her mk1 cabby, with the dash lights. did yours start working after replacing the bulbs? also fuse no.20 keeps blowing does this have any relation? finally i have just replaced the bulb in the back of the light switch but this stays on constantly is this normal? any ideas? many thanks...... Dan
I didnt need to replace then bulbs in the end. They are just so dim I couldnt reallly make them out until it was completely dark. I have got a guy coming over today top give it a tune up anda check over. Will let you know if he tells me anything worth sharing. rob
