But back in the same boat now, same lights broken. Dash lights flick on for about .2 of a second when i turn the lights on, then dead!

Any ideas of what to try next? In ireland anyone who knows these cars are few and far between!
Its possible you have a dodgy relay, if you heard clicking from the engine bay? It sounds like the coil in the relay is energising then failing to keep the switch closed. A new relay is only a few bob, hopefully if it is someone maybe able to point out which component you need for our cars. I hope this helps.
