Default Burnt Out Lights

O.k. Please don't flame me for putting this in the wrong forum or for never posting before this but I have no idea where this question belongs. The dash lights to my odometer, shift indicator, temp gauge ect... are all out. Is this a fuse issue or is it more indepth such as removing the dash and replacing the bulbs? The said vehicle is a 2001 V70 T5. I just went over 100,000 so the extended warrenty has expired and who knopws if they would have covered that anyway. I need this problem fixed because I will be attempting to sell the car in the next few months due to an overseas move. Please help me...

I think IPD has repair kits for this type of situation.

I would look at the dimmer switch.

Does any of the lights on that circuit work?


I will move this post to the proper section for you. It will be in the V70 section.

Thanks for moving this to the proper forum. The lights actually went out one after the other. First was the outside temp gauge and shift indicator. Then I went out to drive the car Sunday and the odometer and trip where burnt out. [:@] Now the wife was driving it home from work tonight and she said the transmission is slipping again. If it wasn't for the extended warrenty that came with this car we would have been hurting a long time ago. The extended warrenty has replaced the sunroof, a radiator, transmission work twice when it was slipping and slamming into gear and the turbo. We have alot of trouble with this car. Maybe we just the short end of the stick because in spite of the troubles we may buy another when we get back stateside in three years.
