Hello there,
I have an issue at the moment where my radio won't turn off when I remove the key so I have to switch it off on the button each time I turn the car off.
Also, if I turn the car off leaving the lights on, there is no beep or warning sound. I'm assuming there should be?
Can anyone help with the above? Are the issues linked in any way?
Cheers

Sounds like the key-in switch is borked on your ignition switch.

Re: Radio and Lights Issue
Odd question, but if you accidentally leave your handbrake up, does the car beep at you? Come to think of it, I'm not sure if the handbrake uses the same buzzer or not.

You can probably test it with the Vagcom.

Re: Radio and Lights Issue
Ok. One really needs to have Vagcom with these machines!

It's the first tool any owner should buy.

Re: Radio and Lights Issue
Do they ever come up for sale on here?
Seems to be loads of types available. Is there any you would recommend?
Cheers
