Cant thank you enough. Just fixed my 2004 325i which had the exact same problem. When the radio came on I was overjoyed and knew the rest would come on. Was about to send it to the auto electrician and thought Id check you tube. Thank god for TH-cam and people like you. 5 Stars!!!
Just to inform everybody. Im driving a E46 from 2005, i had this, tried your method and my car wouldnt start at all, after 2 days the display lights came back and with jumper cables i got my car to start again. My theory is that the weather is a big influence on this matter because prior to this it was really cold, as soon the weather became better the display lights came back. Not saying your method doenst work because the proof can be found in the other comments.
Thank you! had a similar problem with by old 94' BMW, no gauges were moving but the speed, and two brake lights turned on, but the car works fine. turned the key on with engine off, took out random 1 of 4 relevant fuses and put it back in, checked, and everything was back as usual. 3>
Thanks mate! Mine worked just by taking them out and putting them back in 😂🙈 was a little scared about putting them back in while engine was on as pregnant! But I would have if I wasn’t. But yeah great video 👍
The head unit is properly classy innit!. Can’t reply to your comment on the video cos it had a link in it, so I think TH-cam auto-deleted it, but saw it in my emails.
I'm gonna give this a go too! Battery compartment got flooded due to heavy rain last few days and car wouldn't start until I jumped it - but then speedo/dash lights wouldn't work. I've tried disconnecting battery for a day or so (took it out to give it bit of recharge too) - still no speedo/dash lights. Will try this and get back if it works :)
So I have the issue with only the gas tank needle not working. Just replaced the gas pump 3 times so it isn't that, they said I have to replace the cluster. Do you know which fuses are for the gas needle only? Mine just stays on empty and doesn't move at all I have a 2003 325CI
Heet we have the same issue but it did not work. But we also have the problem that the cool fan is not working. Even tho it’s not broke we tested it with the computer. Is this all the work of the abs sensor ?
Hello mate, im having kind of the same problem. The speedo, fuel and temp are working but the rpm gauge and the fuel efficiency are not, do you have an idea why?
Hi, I did this, but didn’t for some reason had the engine on while I took the fuses out and in. Now the car start and turns off after 2-3 seconds. Took the fuses out and in again, also switched to new ones. Still same. Took off the battery for 20-30 min. Now then car won’t start at all. Gonna check with the second Key tomorrow and listen if the fuel pump works as it should. Do you have any recommendations to do? :) The problem from start was just that the speed, fuel and heat didn’t have light. Clock, radio and all the other stuff have light.
on my bmw e 46 sometimes when I turn on the ignition there is no light and then it won't start, and when I turn on the ignition and there is a light it starts every time, once I turned the key for 15 minutes until the lights appeared, is this also a problem with the fuse box and does the whole box have to be changed or only a specific fuse?? at the service center they want to replace the entire box, which is not very cheap.
Have you sorted yours out? I have the same issue, only abs and airbag light lights up, tried this method and swapped out the ignition switch, still doesn’t work.
Tried it out. Car just shuts off when i Pull those fuses 34,10,43. Only lights that turn on is my Abs and airbag light. Radio and everything else works except Trunk Button. Do i just need a new instrument cluster or wha
I have the same issue except my heat gauge does go up and stay high...I just check the fuses are ok ...but dint put them back while car idling I'll try doing that
@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos Thanks mate did just that, immediately after I follow all your steps ...nothing happen locked the garage but couple of hour late went in looking for my phone and inserted the key and everything was operating normal. Started it indicators , rev count and my heat gauge normal ..thank you for your video ...maybe you should add after following those steps give it some time
Did you make sure that the fuses you pulled weren’t actually blown? If both have gone down together then that does sound like a fuse itself could well have blown
had this issue, changed all 3 fuses and everything worked fine for a few days, but earlier the entire dash stopped working, any ideas on why this could be?
@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos Tried again and still nothing, don’t know if it helps but initially the Speedo and everything else worked fine the problem was the actual lights/ turn signals not working, but now none of the above are working
@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos i double checked every fuse and they’re all fine, still haven’t figured it out yet since I haven’t been driving it, but any ideas at all could help I’m pretty stumped

@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos yeah. Did it with the car off and on .I've seen another video that it could be the cluster faulty but il have to get it checked at
So probably should have done this before but I disconnected the battery and re connected it and things started to work again .but issues with cruse control light staying on when the key is out .so I've copied your video and found the fuse that leaves the light on and taken it out as it might have gone faulty so il try a new fues before taking it to the garage.

hello, i have the same problem on my e46, in short i have to remove the 3 fuses then put the car to work and insert the fuses with the engine running?

I suspect that you more likely have an issue with the wiring to the sender unit.
Heet we have the same issue but it did not work. But we also have the problem that the cool fan is not working. Even tho it’s not broke we tested it with the computer.
Is this all the work of the abs sensor ?
I doubt it’s the abs sensor causing it, possibly a module fault somewhere but I’m unsure, sorry
Hello mate, im having kind of the same problem. The speedo, fuel and temp are working but the rpm gauge and the fuel efficiency are not, do you have an idea why?
Sounds like it could be a fault inside the clock unit or maybe bad wiring to it?

would it be the same in a e39 ? cause i have the same problem but in a e39
