hiya, bought a nova gsi yesterday, this mornin i was messin round with my head unit, and now my petrol gauge and rev counter arnt working, pretty sure i blew a fuse while fitting the head unit, but having checked the fuses quickly i cant see any blown?
anyone know which fuse controls the rev counter, petrol, oil gauges?
and wot else it may be, as i quickly checked the fuses just below the steering wheel?

cheers

or do as halfords mechanics do and take of the holding nut and then just rag at the wheel top bottom top bottom then side to side takes alot of efort but it works

yer i baught a tool to get it off, but the little lugs that go into the steering wheel snapp, well iv snapped 2 any way.
so now iv got to grind the other ends till they fit.

but if i still carnt get it off. im going to ask my dad next time he comes up to southport to have a bash. he might be able to as he owns his own body shop.
