Clio - brief dash fault - Andrew-T
I seem to remember a problem of this kind on the forum before, but can't trace it:

SWMBO reports that her Clio 1.6 (00W) twice had a dropout on the fascia today. The first time, the fuel gauge fell and the warning lamp came on briefly. The second time, most dials fell to zero for a second or two, and she reports a buzzing from behind them. Running of the car not apparently affected. I haven't witnessed the problem during a 25-mile journey this pm. But I seem to recall a thread along these lines a few months ago.

The immediate cause may be low temperature - car lives outdoors. Any suggestions about contacts which could be cleaned, etc.?

Was it this one?

this is likely to be a loose connector plug or bad earth somewhere. probably in the dash area, so it may need to come out if it gets worse. Check all the earths and plugs you can see in the engine compartment, fusebox areas, tho you may fix it

Thanks DD, but I don't think so. I seem to remember a general fault on a dash, but not of a Clio, maybe a 306?
