Pug306 battery light comes on when I switch ignition off!

My problem is that when I switch the engine off, the battery light comes on but dimly (as does the digital clock).

 

It doesn't go off until I open the door. After that it stays off.

 

Electrics seem to work fine and the central locking works.

 

Anyone?

:rlol: What's the betting that question if posted over there is the equivalent of asking what the red button does here :D

 

Well, I've had no replies yet so either it is and they just ignore FAQs or it's not and no-one knows the answer.

It's a connector on the rad that gets water in it and corrodes. This causes a short that can cause the fans to come on or, in a worst case scenario, prevent the engine from shutting down even with the key out and alarm on!

 

I'm lucky and will get it sorted when she goes in for a service.
