worth a clean up first?

can also try the wanted section on the forum -

Might be an idea to clean up all your dash pod n earths? –

From the wiki -

Hacksawbob The circuit board under the dash pod can get corroded (sometimes badly from windscreen corrosion badly fitting seal) pry off dash pod and trace the white plastic block that feeds it, disconnect it and buff up the copper contacts with a green scouring pad can also fix disco lighting effects on the dash warning lights

Mocki - If it is the foil PCB then that’s a difficult job to repair, but possible. It could just be the connection plug to the dash pod, try giving it a gentle clean

HSB: ....suspect electrics - damp in the dash pod and/or corroded contacts are a good starting point. The main connector, the big rectangular one that connects to the circuit board in the dash - pop it off and use a scouring pad to clean up what's there. Bad earths can also be a culprit. Check behind the fuse box where there is a crown of spade terminals; get some emery paper on them (remove spades first!) -

(and disconnect battery earth before you start)....
