sorry m8 is it called f 37? sorry im a bit slow.

[vares]

Yep F37 and 10A, and problem may can be in the backlight regulator(dimmer).

[4743stephenf]

is that in behind the dash?

[vares]

This is wheel-potentsiometer on the front panel.

would i have to bring it to a garage to get it fixed? or is it an easy job?

[vares]

This is easy job.Need only be replaced by another not defective.This should pick up and pull out of the nest and disconnect the connector from the dimmer.

Hi have you checked the dash bulbs, do other dash lights work, i.e. heater controls, cigar lighter etc, is the dimmer control turned fully up?

[4743stephenf]

None of the in car lights work bar the light that comes on when the door opens? yep the dimmer is turned up fully just black cant see what speed doing in night time etc.
