Dashboard Clocks
Just purchased my 4th focus but have an issue I've not came across before.
when I switch my lights on the dash lights up but the needles drop and mileage goes off. When I switch my lights back off they all resume working. I cant drive at night without lights but also cant drive without knowing speed temp fuel etc anyone have experience of this issue? No fault codes show up during scans Could it be faulty light switch or is it more likely the dash clocks needing replaced? |

The first thing(and cheepest)is to remove the switch and unplug it, then plug it back in. Making sure it is fully seated.
Let us know how it works.

Try switching gauge clusters and tell us if that works. Try reseating your cluster connector first.
