Hi John.....welcome to the Forum It is possible that the current is shared by both items, assuming it can be switched independently. I would start by first checking the fuses to see where the power is going off to an also check the wiring near the screen

I recently encountered a similar issue with a Honda and this came down to the fact that I fitted cheap (Chinese) bulbs and igniters....massive mistake.

Hi MIxa....welcome to the Forum Welcome back to the wonderful world of Vauxhall

Hi Kenneth....welcome to the Forum They were superb cars back then but did suffer from the tin-worm slightly. Had a PA Cresta, couple of Carltons and an Omega....all superb cars and could compete with most other brands back then. Good to have you onboard

How did you get on with the oil change and hope the back is better now. At least you have swapped the rain for the cold 🙂
