Title: OH SH** WHATS CAUSING THIS ?
Post by: ANDY597 on 05 January 2008, 12:47

I went to put the bucket out last night and noticed that my ignition lights and handbrake light was on. (no keys in ignition)

I went back in the house and got my keys and tried fiddling with the ignition barrel thinking that It hadnt switched off properly.

No such luck, the lights would only go off if I selected reverse gear.

I locked the car up for the night, but any urgent help would be greatly appreciated.  Ive been back out this morning, but I cant see anything obvious

Thanks

Sounds bad-earth-mungous.

As previous poster has said - check fusebox and also rear light clusters, too.
