Your Driver Information Module (D.I.M.) has packed up I'm afraid, there is someone who can repair them, can't remember who though, or you can get a new one from Volve for getting on for £800.

is it a major problem or is it just a matter of getting new clocks?

99% never works they need reprogramming.

I think there's a video somewhere. ;)

Did your DIM just die or was it doing weird stuff for a while first?

they just died...... only thing that works is the engine management lights....... i put another set in today from one of my mates and the clocks still never worked just the same engine management light came on and off like the original clocks........ is there a module to control the clocks or is it definately the clocks..........
