But all the exterior lights including taillights are on. So I believe the wiring loom is just different as to what plugs in where.
Sidewalk, is your Estate a US or Canadian market car? My dash lights come on when I start the car, along with everything else that you mention. Then again, I was "converted" by a US dealer.

I'll say it again...they told me it was just a matter of programming. They didn't say they changed any parts and i'm sure they would have balked at doing it, for free, if it's so difficult to get the switch.
