thanks but when i checked fuse box under bonnet number 5 and 7 are blue 15amp fuses i just need to know which fuse has caused this problem please

It's fuse box in car , not under the bonnet .

ok sorry i know this will sound silly but where is that and do you know which fuse to replace , the bulbs i put in when i had the spark were led bulbs so im told its something to do with the battery overload !

The fusebox is on the left, on the outside of the instrument panel. Open door, disengage cover by pulling firmly and
remove.According to that list , for that year of car , fuses 17 +26 would be favourites .

ive checked all fuses and still have no speedo lights , the fan works but when i turn on headlights this cuts the fan off so its not a fuse fault maybe something to do with the computer so i disconnected the battery to see if this would rest the problem but it has not , any ideas ?
