Instrument cluster problem.
98.5 1.8TQM
My friend was driving his B5 and out of nowhere, the instrument cluster and radio button lights went out. After about 5-10 mins, all the gauges stopped working except for the engine temp gauge. Did a quick search and came up with some ideas: ignition switch, loose/dirty connection behind cluster, or tranny speed sensor (not sure if the manual has one or not but that that could cause the speed/odo to stop but I dont know about the others)
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions what to look at or check? Thanks fellas.
