Hey, can anyone help?
I recently took out my instrument cluster to replace the D indicator lamp (expensive!). After I reinstalled I found now the P lamp doesn't work. That lamp I replaced but the old one was still good. The lamp still does not work.
I imagine I have disturbed a contact in one of the connectors, though they all look good. Can anyone tell me which contact in which connector controls the P lamp please.

Can't help with the connector controls, but you could try a lamp from the 1, 2 or 3 gear positions in P and see if that works. When my D gear position lamp blew, I replaced it with the lamp from 1 as it is hardly if ever used.

Thanks Billy but I actually put in a new globe and it still doesn't work.
I can't trace the printed circuit at the back. If I could find the right connection tab I could check continuity.
