HELP - wierd rev gauge n lights
i just read a post similar to this but no finished feed back.
today i drove to work and everything was fine.
on my way home near my home drivers started flashing me about my lights being off, but the switch was on, i pressed the fog lights and my lights came on.
when i have the lights switched off the rev counter works fine, when i switch lighs on the rev counter drops to 0 zero and doesnt move, if i fiddle with the dimmer the rev counter moves a bit.
my temperature show too hot then ive ever seen thinking that my fan was not kicking in. i didnt see my fan on at all.
when i press the button on my FOB i would usually hear a click and the central locking motors, now if i press the light switch i can hear this click.
mfa also goin wierd. :dontknow:
i just spoke to a m8 who will come and check my fuses etc…
i just spoke to my mechanic and he says that probably a loose wire probably earth or fuses.
this is worryin me, dont want to have to take my baby to someone i dont know and end up spending a long time paying them off.
please any help is gratefull.
this just happened today and wont be driving until i can sort this

IT WAS RAINING
i was looking at the wire on the rocker cover last week, didnt know what wire this is, all i knew was that the tape around the wire was coming off at the connection with rocker and wire and some tiny bit of kinda powder.
i had the car out last winter and this never happened,
i have not checked the car yet but will 2mrw as i am at home,
the wire i see is at the ront not the back, does this matter?
when i check will post, n e more ideas??
any other connections to loof for?
