Hi there. I would recommend checking all of the fuses under the dashboard. There should be several fuses in a box, one of which will be a 15 amp fuse that is responsible for the dashboard lights. If any of these are burnt, this could be your problem. If you’d like to have this diagnosed, a certified technician from YourMechanic can come to your car’s location to pinpoint the cause of the starting issue and assist with repair.
