JustGav Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 No warning lights for a start... I'd have to check the wiring diagram, but I'm pretty sure the speed circuit is buffered via the odo, which means the ECU wouldn't get the speed signal... So you might end up with light powersteering and gearbox change up issues (if auto)... but not 100% without checking the diagram. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 The biggest problem you could face is a lack of answers due to your poor choice of thread subject but once you've sorted that out you may find the airbag light stays on and needs a reset. http://www.mkiv.com/techarticles/airbag_light/airbag.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konrad Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 (edited) Plug hazard lights plug at least to get indicators working Edited December 11, 2008 by Konrad (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveR Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Plug hazard lights plug at least to get indicators working The indicators don't work unless you plug the hazard switch back in. Why would you need to drive the car without plugging the dash back in anyway, it's an easy enough job to fit/refit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
