its the little black box of tricks hidden behind the glovebox starting to fail,
it is about 35 quid from the stealers for a new one iirc,

if you have a search on here for the problem im pretty sure there is even a part number posted somewhere in one of the threads.

very common problem, and a fairly easy fix from what i can gather.

I didn't think D9s had the interface. Could be the transponder on the 'box or bad connection in the dash.

Do you mean the connection into the actual dials itself

Maybe but 406 dials seem to have an annoying amount of dry joints on the board themselves.
