check the bulbs in the display unit. They've probably blown

 

Even though you can see it faintly??

If so how do I do that? And what bulbs does it take??

 

Has anyone pressed the left-hand button poking out of the speedo? That controls the overall brightness, unless you mean it's just the clock area in which case I'll shut up :thumb:

 

Its just the clock is dim.. I do have a one switch on the left hand side of the steering wheel column which is for the indicators and headlights, etc.. Then I have two on the right side, one is for the wipers, and I believe the other one is to control the radio part... But I have never used that one because I have replaced the radio with a brand new one..

 

Do you mean the display in the centre of the dashboard ???

 

I mean the clock that tells the time, near the hazard buttons is not displaying anymore.. The other lights around the speedo r fine..

 

Yes I think he means the mfd in the centre of the dash, I think ! :nod:

 

That's what I thought. A quick look on ebay showed displays with either 3 or 4 bulbs. If some or all bulbs have blown then you may still see the display faintly but you need the backlight from the bulbs to see it properly in daylight.

 

That's handy to know.

 

I've never taken one out of a 206 but on the 307 they are just clipped in. A good tug pulls it out. Onece it's out you can remove the bulbs to see if they are ok and if blown take one as a sample to your local spares shop.

I'm guessing that you've seen the display working before. If not then the previous owner may have disconnected it to hide an error message. I did a diagnostic on a car trying to see why the trip computer and temperature display wasn't working. Turned out the previous owner cut the data wires to the display to hide the fault messages when he sold the car on.

 

I have the same problem
But mine is dim on one side are the more then 1 bulb in it ?
