recently bought a corsa b 1.4 16v sri and on the right of the clocks in the dash where the temperature outside should be shown, theres just 3 dashes and no figure. also, i have no reverse lights even though the bulbs are fine .. (lexus lights btw) had same problem with those type of lights on last car aswell (1.2 8v), turned out to be dodgy soldering on the bulb housing and reverse light switch was bent... is it likely to be the same thing on my 1.4??

any help appreciated

ambient air temperature sensor

also check the reverse light switch is plugged in, should be on the front of the gearbox
