tom38:
got home this evening and switched off ignition engine kept running at first thought it was obvious stop solenoid problem so stalled engine then i noticed that my oil light an others were still on so i disconnected the earth from battery and when i reconnected it the lights came back on including light for heater plugs which after its usual few secs went out as if ignition had been turned on except no keys in it at time any ideas on where the prob lies electrics not my thing  :huh: :huh:

Is this the one that was stolen? If it was, was it hot wired? Any cut/taped wires may be touching and giving the symptoms you descibe.

craig_midz:
have u checked the wiring on the back of your igniton barrel the black box could be knackered an fallen apart inside has happened on me a couple of times an had same effects as your describing

JIMBOBLY:
if your ignition switch on the back of the barrell has melted,it will stick and the shaft that goes into the switch has either broken,or the the bit that the shaft goes into on the switch its self has broken,so it will still feel like its working,letting you turn it one way,but when you turn the key off,the switch is not operating,hope it helps mate :)

Saffy:
Mine does this now and again and its the aftermarket immobiliser at fault.
