Today as I drove away from work, my 2004 MINI MCS turned on as usual but the interior display lights (when the car headlights come on), heat/AC refused to come on. However, my radio and headlights still worked, it's just I couldn't see the tachometer/speedometer b/c it was night. When I got out of the car temporarily without turning off the engine and returned to the car, the interior lights and heat were working as usual. I don't know if a fuse was loosened or what. Another note is that I just used the Autolock, which may have banged near the brake pedal a bit. Any ideas?

IMO this is when you take it to the dealer!
