Interior light
« on: 14 July 2007, 15:40:26 »
Fellas
I got home after work the other day and as soon as I switched the ignition off the main interior light came on. Never noticed before if this comes on when the ignition is switched off, or when the door is opened.
However, the light times out and goes off when the car is locked but, when the ignition is switched on the light will stay on until the ignition is switched back off.
I'm thinking faulty relay. Anyone had this fault or any ideas what it could be?

I think he means the headlight switch - as that controls the interior light...

pop the light down, and check the 4 (?) connections are OK...
