Time4theshades Posted November 28, 2023 Report Share Posted November 28, 2023 New to this forum, if I've posted under the incorrect subject I apologize. I drive a 2013 C-Max Energi In Sept of this year I was in a car accident. My driver's door and front driver's fender took the hit. All things are sorted with the insurance and I purchased the car to repair. The car is in great working order as far as driving is concerned. However, my dashboard is completely black and my air con is completely black, surprisingly my radio/sync works with no problem. I don't believe the dashboard has become disconnected anywhere because when I stop for fuel I the message for ready to refuel pops up. TLDR; Has anyone has any issue where their C-Max's Dashboard & Air con no longer work? If so, is there a reset or something I should look into to fix this issue? Thanks to anyone and everyone that reads this and responds! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestead Posted November 29, 2023 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 Sounds like the power or ground is disconnected. For power check fuses for blown fuse. There is one fuse panel under the glove box. Another under the hood and another in the cargo area. I would try checking F69 (instrument cluster) in the fuse panel under the glove box. Look at this page for help in locating the correct fuse. Good luck Time4theshades 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Time4theshades Posted December 6, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2023 Hey Thanks for the help! I replaced those fuses to no luck. I'll have to keep trying to see where the failure is located. Hoping to find a solution soon as this cold weather is making it tough to drive with no heat. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestead Posted December 6, 2023 Report Share Posted December 6, 2023 Too bad that would have been a cheap easy fix. Yeah it could be a connector on the back of instrument panel not fully connected or something worse but you would have to take apart the dash to find it.

Time4theshades Posted July 13 Author Report Share Posted July 13 Been driving near daily using my speedometer app and a fan lol. Back in Apr. I was driving to visit a friend and it was raining. Out of nowhere the dash and air con started working. I assumed it was fixed. Sadly it all went off and hasn't been back on. I'm assuming it's a short somewhere and the water was conducting. Anyways, I've replaced the driver's fender but there's a missing connector I need that connects 1411001-1 which is an 8pin connector to a 4pin connector. I'm very uneducated when it comes to cars but it anyone knows anything please share. 1210408 thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
