Help! This morning suddenly I have no instruments or warning lights working, non-functioning power steering & electric windows & no indicators.
All lights are working, as are door mirrors, heater blower,radio ,horn ,wipers & hazards.
I have checked all fuses which are all OK. Weird or what! Any suggestions would be welcome.
P.S Car is 2002 MGF which belongs to my wife who has now claimed my car!.

Did you check the fuses under the bonnet.

Hi. Thanks for the response. It`s now sorted .The 10amp fuse for the indicator/instruments was faulty- i.e. not blown, but no continuity. Why this should affect all the other stuff I have no idea, but a `back to basics` approach paid off! many thanks

The epas wasn't working because it uses the feed from the ignition/no charge warning lamp to detect whether the engine is running.
Hence if the warning light circuit is dead, then the EPAS dies.
Think the leccy windows use the same fuse to detect whether the ignition is on.
