Title: MID lights staying on
Post by: toller on 12 February 2011, 20:57:10

Just started with this problem today in that the lights on the MID are now staying on after the ignition has been turned off.

Once the engine is stopped the display will momentarily show the date and then the name of the radio station will come back on, it stays like this permanently now even after the car is locked.  I've resorted to removing the fuse for the interior lights whenever i leave the car but obviously this is a bit annoying so does anyone know what's causing the problem and even better how can i out it right.

Do the MID lights still come on with the stereo removed?

Not tried that although this morning when I went to start it the battery was very nearly flat and this is with the fuse for the internal lights removed so i'm guessing something else is also staying on.

I shall try removing the stereo and see what happens.

It's happened to me as well (CCR2006 radio).

I just pulled the fuse for the radio unswitched supply for a few minutes and it sorted itself out. Think the radio had got into a funny state.

If you've got a phone or trafficmaster connected that can use the aux input it's possible that it's holding the radio muted but I don't believe it displays the radio station in that case.
