Hi Everyone,
I am a complete newby on this forum so your help will be greatly appreciated. I recently purchased a 2006 MK5 GTI as my project car.
I am by no means an expert and this could be totally coincidental. Yesterday I replaced both indicators on my mirrors as they were cracked. I tested them and they worked fine. This morning I went down to top up my coolant which I did and then I turned the car on to check that the warning switched off.
The car started normally and then ....I went to turn the car off and I turned my key back to the. Off position and removed my key but the car remained running. There was no way to turn it off but stall the engine. The problem after that was the electrics on the dash remained on.
So next I was worried my battery would drain so the only way to stop the battery from draining was to disconnect the battery.
Can someone please help me ??? What could be the cause of this ?
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Thanks,
Alex
