UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Hi,
Both my RPM needle and my speed needle in the cluster stopped working, I think it's kind a wired that both light will fault at the same time?

Maybe one of you encountered this problem and know how to fix it?

Saw a lot of posts about using this switch: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001566467260.html?spm=a2g0o.cart.0.0.44043c00wpiIRo&mp=1 on the VW T5, it's the same connector as the Polo's.. Maybe it's less buggy then the Bluetooth one?

Thanks!
