Hi Nick
Thanks for your info, this is what i thought, ignition switch fell apart, i'll replace this first which is cheap but i still think its to do with the imbo to the key, this is the only area that has given me problems, everything else fine.

« on: 12 February 2016, 11:41:27 »

Hi guys
Has anyone taken a dashboard  out on a pfl omega, any advice, have a problem with
the heater matrix i think, water in footwell unable to hold its water level, just leaks into car, not worried how long it will take, car used now and again and can be laid up
previous reply was to cut the bottom of the dash in the drivers footwell, not sure about doing this
also trying to get at it from the front after taking out the radio and climate control panel, not sure if i can
     Cheers guys
