Get a copy of rave

Clean all earths

Look at wiring diagram and suspect fuesbox or bcem
 
think ive found the problem fuse 1 should be a 10amp fuse ive found a 30am fuse in there so if im right what ever caused the fuse to blow first time has done it again but not blew the 30amp so would you say its done damage to bcm? or is there a relay gone down?
 
With luck no damage to BeCM...but if the Dash is dim/not functioning and it blows a 10A fuse (hence the 30A) then you have a serious short and needs to be checked ASAP before a nasty end happens...

Try a 10A if that blows....you need to start taking the services that Fuse 1 Feeds apart to find any issues....

Do you have any aftermarket mods like different stereo or in car Bluetooth or such like that could have been badly bodged to fit hence the increased drain and possible short???

just a radio and a so called mate has tried to wire the fog lights in without going through bcm ?
 
Remove the bodged Fog Lights Wiring and see if you have the same issue....

'Mates' should be let loose on P38 wiring unless they REALLY know what they are doing!
removed the wiring to fog lights and still the same the fuel gauge pulses up and down dont know what to do now?

Remove instrument binnacle (See RAVE) pull plug at right hand side. With ignition on check you have power to pins 4 and 14 from fuse one.
