Hello Cpak007,

It is interesting we are having a similar issuebut to start with, what year is your car?

Do your turn signals show for left and right?

Does the digital clock work?

Hi QB
I have 97 GLT wagon and turn signal and digital clock works.
I am guessing it, sort of bad electrical connection to Instrument Panel,
Does anyone have electrical schematic/diagram?
Thanks forhelp in advance
If I didn't have this Volvoforums feedback, I would give up the my Volvo long time ago cause it costs too much to take it to dealer

Has the instrument panel been removed in the recent past? If so it is probably as you say, a bad connection. If not, check and reset/replace the fuse(s) for the gauges and see if that helps.

Hi Psaboic,
Thanks for your comments,
I haven't touch the instrument panel so I will go for fuses

Hello Cpak007 and Psaboic,

I ordered some instrument lights a while back, have them now, and Im going to to tackle the job this weekend as Ive got a brake issueIm dealing with right now.
