E30-323ti 66 Report post Posted October 21, 2013 Is the temp gauge not working either?? SI Board Battery will probably be dead / leaking / corroding the circuit board. I do have a pic of how I bypasses the SI Board, but I think mine was a motometer cluster, so not sure if it will work on a VDO one..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Every thing bar the speedo is not working... even the lights to tell you how many kms before next service. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UBH8N 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2013 Dose it do anything like what mine done? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vcn-I9-I1AE If so i had a short between two wires running down past the shifter boot These two Those two wires were blowing fuses as well, 2 30A fusses, cant remember what ones they were. I insulated the wires, replaced the fuses and all was good again. Not to sure if youre problem is the same thing but its worth a shot i guess Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_ethrty-Andy_ 2132 Report post Posted October 24, 2013 hmm, guessing you checked all fuses etc as a place to start? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E30-323ti 66 Report post Posted October 24, 2013 Can you please elaborate on this? not to sure what an si board is.. The Service Indicator Board - pretty Xmas tree lights in the dash that tell you the oil needs to be changed. It has rechargable batteries, these die / leak / make a big mess often and the board/batteries need to be replaced (or bypassed) for the dash to start working again. Pelican have a write up here Search the net a bit more and there will be heaps of pics also. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
