Used to happen on my old mondeo, it wasn't a bulb gone, just a dodgy connection! With the lights on, every time it went off I gave the top of the dash a firm thump, that made it come back on Could be worth a try first!

thump on the dash usually worth trying

there are 2 screws that hold the front facia in place at the top
remove them and it "should" be clear to you as to what to do

just don't break anything in the dash as it's a pain in the butt to sort

alternativly, click the meg in my sig to teleport your internet to the place to find the answers

the whole instrucment cluster needs to come out to change the bulbs really, you can't just stick your hand underneath and have a feel for it

Brian

How do i get the whole lot out

It will only pull forward so far

I can see the bulb and sort of reach it but just not sure how the bulb comes out

Cheer's Brian

If you can get hold of it, twist it and it should pull out.
