Dash lights

Post by Davidkirk »

Hello. On my 1984 water cooled I have no dash lights so driving at night I have no idea how slow I am going :D I think the person who had it before me might have cut some wires when he fitted the radio. I have two green and white wires that are just loose behind the dash. Also the temperature light flashes when I turn the headlights off. I know it's a long shot but any ideas please. Dave

Yeah I've tried that. I'll have to have a serious look at what's going on behind the dash. Although electrics aren't my strong point :?
