Side Lights Keep staying on!!!

[mikeyjm26]

My side lights keep staying even with the lights switched off. The only way to stop them from running my battery flat is to remove the fuse which is a pain.

Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening?

Thanks

Mikey

agree with the above. May sound too easy but many people have been caught out with it

Happened to me when i got my scoob...but wasnt brave enough to admit it !

I am a right sad git but after my first drive in a new car I like to sit with a cup of tea and read the manual. It was a bit more relevant with the previous cars, BMW and golf 4motion, but the if you read the forums the amount of people who dont know what accessories their car has is amazing. Like auto dip rear view mirrors and auto wipers. and people not knowing that they could close the windows with the remote control. Even down to things like boot locks or "whats this botton for?" Why take the time to go on line and ask when you have a manual

Finnie...

Think the best question is....what does the bright switch do ???

[mikeyjm26]

Finnie,

I haven't got the manual with my scoob. I'm like you, I like to read it as well to see what everything does, that's how I didn't know and thought I would ask the experts.

best regards

Mikey
