Warning Lights don't work at all!
Hi everyone, I've had my FC for about a month now and none of the warning lights turn on in my car even when the car is running. I feel like theres an issue with the cluster because I don't even get the full beams light when they're on. Has this happened to anyone else and how did you fix it?
Thanks.

My warning lamps were intermittent but it turned out to be the connection on the back side of the warning cluster. . . I removed the center bezel and removed the warning lamp cluster. . .
I had to pull the connector off and plugg it back in. After all these years, the solder joints on the inside of the warning lamp cluster need to be re-soldered.. . .The connector was also showing corrosion signs.
I needed the center warning lamps to work for smogg inspection.
The high beam headlight problem is most likely with the high/low beam switch . . ..

Weren't working either, pulled the whole thing apart, the board was junk, I had to sand all the contacts for the bulbs and I traced each pcb trace with a volt meter to check each one, the thing looked like it sat at the bottom of a lake for years.

It's a common issue on the FC to have bad solder joints on various interior electronics. I would recommend removing the idiot light cluster and popping it apart and having a look at the board. Given the amount of issues we have had with these over the years, I would not suspect an issue with the wiring.
