Hi
I am busy sorting electrical gremlins due to (i think) some serious water ingress into the car. The leak i think has been stopped by attaching some hose to the sunroof drains at front and directing water out through wing area anyway I have some electric issues.
The problem is that when i shut the doors and lock them the dashboard lights pop back on and stays on. I have had a heater on for hours over last few days and its looking much better but still have this problem.
Due to the flickering boot open warning I thought it may be this. I have removed the boot trim ( signs of water getting in - is there anywhere it hasn't!) I have dried it out and removed all electrical connections to the lock and rear wiper. The lights still remain on and the boot warning light?
I dug out a fuse box diagram (thanks crasher) but was unable to see a fuse for locks, just central locking and interior lights - removing these fuses did not make lights go out.
I have removed radio as this aslo came on sporadically
I wonder if i need to look closer to fuse box ?
Thanks in advance
