Green Digital Dash Not Working

[DGUN]

I have a 1986 WR UR Quattro and just recently the digital dash display went blank, whilst driving. I have contacted various garages and read some articles, but still have no idea where to take it to get it fixed. Does anyone know of where I could take it? Somewhere in Shropshire would be great, as I live in Shrewsbury.

The head light and indicator and hand brake lights still work - would they still work if it was the relay? The digital display - i.e. the rev counter, speedometer, clock and gauges don't. Thanks

Thanks - I did take a look at the fuses and they all seemed okay.

Maybe the PSU is defective...

Can you try the dash out on your desk ?
