mfa not working

does any1 no wot powers the mfa display? coz since i put my replacement gearbox in it hasnt worked, plz help its annoying lol

Which particular part of the mfa isn't working?

none of it mate, not even the time

1st thing id check is the fuse.

if i remember to tonight ill have a look in a haynes manual to tell you witch one.

until then you could pull each one out and replace any tht have blown.


2nd thing just make sure you havnt pulled any wiring off of any sensors, gearbox earths etc which would cause the fuse to pop.

okey doke mate cheers

i forgot to check manual.

just go through the fuses for a start and see if you have any blown fuses.

just a thought though bud.

what year is your car, as your fuse locations will be different due to pre 90 CE1 and post 90 CE2 ?????

its a 89 gti mate cheers

Possibly same location as mine then.

I'll try to remember to look Friday as I'm going to work on my car then

had a quick look around the net and some places say fuse 15 others say fuse 18.

however i quickly nipped to my mums yesterday and while there checked my fuses and neither of those look like the ones mate.

again ill have a look in haynes manual later when i go there to clean/pollish my wheels up for summer.

hi bud checked all my fuses only 1 was gone, so changed that, dont no wot is was for but mfa stil not workin

ok!

the next thing i would do is get a replacement stalk and try that.

it sort of points to that as all of it stopped working at once which likely means that all the sensors are still working (unlikely theyd all break at the same time)
