What's the reason for the dashboard lights not working in the new Bora?
2 Answers
New Bora dashboard lights not working reasons include blown dashboard fuse, dead car battery, too bright external lighting, and lights not turned on. Blown dashboard fuse: If the dashboard fuse is blown, it will not only cause the dashboard lights to not work, but also prevent the dashboard needles from moving. This situation requires replacement of a new fuse to avoid unnecessary trouble caused by the dashboard not functioning properly. Car settings reason: This is how the car is designed - overly bright dashboard lights may affect driving, so headlights are defaulted to be on during night driving and off during daytime driving conditions.
The dashboard lights of the new Bora are not working. I've seen many similar cases during my years of car repair. The issue could stem from several aspects: the most common is a blown fuse. The dashboard-related fuse is located in the fuse box under the glove compartment on the passenger side. After locating it, check for any signs of burning, and try replacing it with a new one. Another possibility is aging or burnt-out dashboard bulbs, especially LED lights which are prone to burning out, requiring the dashboard to be disassembled for inspection and replacement. Additionally, it could be due to loose wiring or a short circuit, such as poor plug contact or wiring chewed by rodents. If all these are fine, then the vehicle control module should be checked, as it controls the dashboard light switch. If the module is faulty, professional diagnosis at a specialized shop is needed. Don’t overlook this issue during daily driving; timely repairs ensure safe driving. It’s recommended to have it checked at a formal repair shop.
