I think the buzzing is the headlights moving into "standard" position. I had this buzzing problem. To check what way round it's suppose to be, simply look at the slot in the air-vent for that bit. Check your fusebox to see if any of them have blown (likely reason for the fuel gauge and rev counter not working.) Replace all fcuked fuses and................. hopefully it should work.

I took it back out, put it in the other way around, which made the lights work normally, but the buzzing happened when the ignition was on. Now the rev counter and the fuel gauge dont work at all, and the battery sign is lit up on the dash. Do you reckon i need to go down the scrappy and get a new bit of what i kicked out, or is it something inside the electrics?! Any ideas greatly appreciated! :lol: Matt


Go down to the scrappy and leave your car there
