Ok so this has been an ongoing problem with my car... well ongoing cus i didnt ever get around to fixing it. My speedometer and dash lights dont turn on when my car starts which isnt really a problem till i drive at night. the weird thing is that depending upon the outside temp and time of day they will kick in anywheres from five min to an hour after i start my car. does anybody know how i can fix this. i was thinking it might be my speedo sensor cus it will sometimes kick in if i hit a bump or take a turn hard enough. has anyone else had this problem with their S13? could it be related to the heads up display?
