my mum has asked me to ask if you can help with her problem. while driving her car sometimes all the needles(speedo etc) drop to nothing as if the car is off and all the ignition lights come on, there is no loss in power or anything. any ideas anyone

thank you

Best guess is a circuit board fault on the instrument panel.
