Hi all

Still running

Sounds like it could be the Climate Control Module or the Blower Motor still running which could drain the alternator and eventually the battery.

Just went through the same thing.

what would cause this to keep running then? how do I resolve?

im wondering if it has any effect from setting up the navcoder ibus interface today? (but I wouldn't see why)?

Remember the battery is still powering a couple of systems even when the car is completely turned off. I just disconnected the battery cable until I was ready to take it to the shop.

I wasn't able to figure it out either.

I am not sure about the ibus interface having anything to do with it.

ive just gone out to the car sat in it in locked the door (and sat very still for 10 min as not to set the alarm off) I could hear it running behind client control panel but also could hear the satnav computer in the boot making a noise. should the nav unit be powered off?

just wondering if again this is now to do with the navcoder as was spliced in the nav and only did this today and had the issue tonight

Do a search on FSR and see if you think this could be your problem.

zulu95 - I am still able to control my fan speed and it all works perfectly ok which would indicate the FSR is ok, its just a fan or something is remaining powered on after car is turned off.

Can anyone tell me when can is unlocked but no key is put
In the ignition. Should the nav drive be powered on?
And if so does the power light flash or solid red light?
