Centre Console Issues

[asitag]

Hey guys,

My centre console has shut itself down and nothing is working. Including the lights on the speedo.

Have any of you guys had this issue before?

It's with the auto electrician atm...

cheers

what are you asking on here for if its at the auto sparky ? sounds a lot like the electrical acceries fuse . or one of them . did you notice if the tail lights still worked ?

well, initially they changed the fuse and it blew again when i drove it down the road...

he is gonna keep the car over night because he couldnt figure it out straight away.

just wondering if others have had similar issues

[asitag]

and yes, the tail lights work

was anything changed prior to that happening? e.g. a recent a/v install or accessories add on?

I got the ipod installed and the GPS is after market. however, those have been cleared by the mechanic.

guess this isnt a common problem.

fingers crossed that this doesnt cost me a $$$$$$

its a fuse. now to be wore exact its the main acc fuse in the drivers panel and the ONLY way that pops is if someone has fiddled with that circuit.

now if you have EVERY thing else there then its a unit fault and I fix those.

just had same issue happened to just two days ago...

centre console suddenly lost power for split sec, then back on again for few minute, then repeat for about 3 times before its completed out:

-lost power on centre console, cant do anything to music and aircon - but aircon still running as normal (still feel cold air out from vent)

-no light on speedo

then I stopped on the side of the road, shut the engine down...left for about 30sec and turn the engine on and everything back to normal

i've only got the ipod connector installed

still be fuse even tho it did come back normal?
