I own a Ford Fiesta Titanium Ecoboost (100 HK)with manuel gearbox from 2013  and have a problem, with the illumination in

the instrument cluster. The illumination change in brightness, it goes down for between 10-20 seconds and than change

to full strenght again. I have an error code on the instrument cluster Er0705.

Is there anyone there have any ideer what can cause this and what that error code means.

    If you're trying to get a proper DTC, you need to plug into the obd2 port. The dash readouts a pretty useless.

    Hi Luke.

    Of course I have tried with a high quality OBD 2 Reader and have no error codes, but I can't help wondering

    if there is a connection, between the lighting in the cluster and the error it is showing.

    I might be wrong here, but I think the speedo illumination brightness automatically adapts to how light it is outside, or the light coming in through the windows. in the middle of the dash at bottom of windscreen is a small plastic dome.  I always thought that was the light sensor, but I might be wrong. Perhaps that has gone wrong.

    If anyone knows I am talking rubbish please tell me so that I know.
