Title: AC control board illiuminated all time
Post by pustagris on Apr 1^st, 2006, 2:34pm

Yesterday night I saw that the instrument panel for the air conditioon was still lightening.Impossible to get it off.
This morning and even now its still on.
However the dashboard gets dark if I draw the key from the ignition.
The head lamps button is turned to off.
The car is still nicely starting up, so the drain on the battery seems to be very negliable. ::)
But some help from you would be appreciated.

Mine had some warning lights glowing faintly on the dash when the ignition was turned off. Bizzarely removing the large green relay which controls the cooling fans cured it!

Eventually found the fault, the wiring loom had almost disintegrated where it passes in front of the air-conditioning condensor (what many people think is the radiator).
