Re: Y2k Jag XJ8
The 'track' and position numbers should be green, I think it only comes on with the lights. i only noticed as the S for sport looked illuminated but I couldn't see the button next to that for the cruise (if yours has it).

Re: Y2k Jag XJ8
Well, that was easy.

Eww that does look shyte doesn't it? Gear selector lights out too? or just too bight to see them? those & the switches behind the gearstick are surface mount LEDs I think, so no issue to a man of your skills. Ignition was off. On, it lights the position up red. Should it have more than that?

Re: What did you do today?
More leather ointments arrived. Did nothing with them.
