How long does it stay on? You haven't said what spec your car is, does it have ECC. If so mine runs for a couple on minutes after turning off the ignition.

Post by: robson on 13 June 2010, 13:45:55: This is due to your speed controller( hedgehog) failing I had the same problem Glove box out and a fiddly job to replace very expensive from GM I got mine on fleebay It was new about £60,00 when you take out the old one make sure you do not break the plastic retaining clips

Be very careful in getting the old one out I broke both plastic retaining clips but it was during that very cold spell Any problems come back to me
