Default Dashboard lights

Hi all a quick question. How many lights flash up on your dash at start up of a st170. I get 6 all on the right hand side just wondering if I'm missing bulbs or they have blown.

Not 100% ON st170'S but alot of Focus's use a similiar binnacle so there will be blanks for the ones not suitable for your model. Off hand though doesnt the ST170 have unique binnacle for the model?

You tried the dashboard test function to confirm which lights are present?

Pleased you found it mate - hopefully should be able to help you diagnose any issues with the bulbs themselves.
