Andy, and others,

There is a tsb that comes close, but it's not exactly what you are
describing. Your '89 100 falls just before this tsb's scope, but I'll
forward this info anyway.


Group: 90
Number: 94-02
Date: Aug. 1, 1994
Subject: Auto - Check Display, display errors
Models: 100 from 1991
Supercedes: Group 96, 91-01, 4/30/91

condition:
 - with radio on, Auto - Check display shows horizontal bars or lines
instead of radio frequency.
 - unrecognizable Auto - Check display - part of display is missing
 - brake pad indicator light illuminates intermittently. (brake pads,
sensor, and wiring are in good condition).
 - oil warning light illuminates.

Note:
The radio frequency is displayed only on vehicles equipped with this
feature.

Service solution:
If any of the above conditions exists replace the Auto - Check circuit
board.

Important:
If the oil warning light comes on, verify the following first before
replacing the Auto - Check circuit board:
Oil level - oil pressure - oil condition - oil leaks

  Can anyone help this chap?  I'm sure I've seen a Q&A on this.

  He's not on the list, so a direct reply (or copy the list if you like)
  would be nice.

  Hi

  I have an Audi 100 1989 which has the single LED check light in the
  centre of the dash. Problem is that sometimes it does not work.
  Instead of scrolling through the different checks all that happens is
  I get lines going across the LED which flicker when the check
  scrolling happens.
  Any Ideas?
