Where’s my dash light for my lights!
Do I have a bulb out on the dash?
My lights are set to auto and apart from someone stating the obvious by telling me to look out the window in the dark
How do I know they are turned on?Cogito ergo sum!

The early ones didn't have a light.
You can Reflash the dash and get a red light on, but best to just note the light switch and dash is lit

Either drive with main beam on all the time, and hence have a nice blue warning light on the dash, or drive really close to the car in front, so you can see the beam pattern New gearbox & TC, 3 x front wheel bearings, belts changed, new oil pump, new battery, new rear prop, new front prop, new front diff, front arb refurbed, front cv boot kit, egr blank and BAS software patch, full rear suspension / drivelive rebuild, new front arms, LED trailer light fix, split charge.
Never had a 107, 90 or 127, but have had most of the rest!

"Lights on" light in the dash came in with 07MY, before that it was "if in doubt, switch yer lights to on position, not auto".
It can be switched on with an IID (using redundant red FBH light) but that gets very annoying for most.
