dials

After taking the GTA out for it's weekly run, to stop everything seizing up, I noticed some condensation in the speedo and rev dials (more so in the rev counter). Not much, but it isn't something I recall seeing before. In fairness it was as wet a day as we've had recently, but, the carpets are...

Hello, My 2001 147 Climate Control Dials; The dial nearest to the driver side moves quite loosely and freely. The dial furthest away (passenger side) is much more of a firm twist. So my thoughts are of swapping them over. Has anyone any tips on removing these? (Without breaking any plastic...

Hi, hope I can get some ideas as to why this has happened and how it can be repaired I was travelling in heavy rain and some messages appeared on the dash asr failure, vdc system, and hill holder, start stop unavailable and possibly a couple more. I managed to reach my destination turned the...

I am looking to freshen up my old 156 face lift and I wanted to upgrade the interior with some new dials. I am currently with the white ones and I want to change them to black ones or maybe something more custom. Could any of you recommend a decent shop that can make me new dials for my 156...

Just started the car (2005 GT JTDm) which had been driving fine earlier today, and there is virtually no dials (rev, speedo, fuel and temp), of buttons working and most warning lights are on. Fuel light flashing. Disconnected battery and it reset itself and even the airbag light was off (bonus)...

Hi, I'm not even sure of the name but people call them tele dials, horse shoes, and I was wondering besides ebay and veloces does anyone know where you can buy them for the giulietta? I have found some in Italy at £722 plus free shipping, on veloces and second hand on ebay and been offered them...

Connected an OBD2 ELM327 reader to my car , which i had done numerous times on my parents' car. Once I paired the device, the car computer started going crazy, all the dials and lights were flashing, dashboard was like a Christmas tree. I turned off the car, removed the adapter and moved on...

Hi guys, I have just recently purchased an Alfa Romeo Giulietta 1.8tbi QV. I was going to go for a drive today but noticed the radio and the heater wouldn't switch on. The same goes for the demisting of the windscreen/rear window. Have any of you guys come across this issue? It would be...

Just adding this in case someone searches for this problem It seems a fair few people have this problem which they are pointed in the direction of the body ecu. Which for some cases it maybe a problem as they can over heat. But the most popular cause for the Headlight throbbing blowing bulbs...

Hi, I need to buy the Speedo Dials Clocks with white background for an Alfa Romeo 147 FL 1.9 Mjet (MY2008) for a UK conversion (kmph -> mph). It must be the latest models as I want a perfect match. It is NOT mandatory to work as I will use only the speed cluster. I think the Speedo is the same...

guys anyone know where or how to get white speedo dials from ?

Hi Guys, well after 4.5 years of Spider ownership, I've learn't many things, but tonight when I put the lights on the heating dial nearest the driver was out. So can anyone point me to how I can get to it to change it. cheers.

Hello everyone, back from the test station with the wife's wedding prezzie 147 with a fresh 12 months ticket on it. Had to replace the entire front braking setup to cure an imbalance but we've done it. Now on to thinking about sorting the more niggly bits with the car, chief among which is the...

Hi all, I was curious what is involved with changing out the backlight for all of the dials on the console (A/C, fan direction, etc..) I have a 2000 156 TS and since I was going to change out the lights on the gauges, I figured why not all of the others so they can all be up to date and equal...

Had a spare hour today so used it to put the rear spoiler on (to a fashion ), and the replacement speedo and tacho ( cos they are the easyist to fit. lol). Now the problems showing themselves are the bulb out warning light lit (near side main beam now not working ), main beam warning works but...

Just got hold of a set of orange on black dials and what I would like to know is, do the shine redas my current 156 ones do and if not is it just a case of swapping bulbs over, and does the mileometer takes its reading from the ecu so will reset to current milage or shall I take a reading of...

I'm thinking about getting the silver centre console plastics on my car liquid vinyl dipped. The process requires the bit being dipped to be split from anything not being dipped. Is it possible to remove the dials and buttons from a facelift 156 climate control panel so the silver plastic can be...

Ok so i've had a crash with my 147 (not my fault), and decided to buy another.So I did and i've noticed on a new one i bought there is no clicking feel when I set the aircon temp on the drivers side.Temp is changing but it's a little odd without that click.Is it possible to repair that?

Hi all, The heater in my 156 had become very poor and the auto windcreen clear had stopped working. Also when the fans were on it was kind of blowing in 'pulses', rather than a steady stream. So, after reading up on the problem I ordered second hand heater control unit from a breaker and...

I have a facelift 156 2.4 JTD and have an ongoing issue that I feel needs sorting now as it's becoming irritating. Occasionally the tachometer, speedo, and centre console lights will all turn off (or flicker), and will only come back on if I give the top of the dash a thump. Obviously this is...
