Good morning everyone,
Been looking though other posts but can't find the same symptoms so here's my problem,

I have a metropolis td5, the other day the fuse for the climate control blew, I have replaced the fuse but now when I turn the ignition off and remove the key and when the interior lights go off, the climate control comes back on, also the interior lights come back on but very dim, any ideas?

Do I have a Gizmo in my fuse box?

Check the engine bay fuse box for water contamination/damage.

Hi Biglad,
Fuse box under bonnet is all clean and dry with no signs of water ingress or corrosion.

Did you have a look on the underside of the fuse panel?

1.check the interior fusebox(in the compartment under the steering wheel), especially for corrosion or water ingress at the plugs... if you unplug it , after you plug the connectors back put ignition on pos.II and leave it so 5 minutes as the IDM to re-establish communication with the BCU....cos these are involved in courtesy light and aircon management aswell

2. it could be a sticking auxiliary circuits relay too... swap R7(aux. circuits) with R8 heaed screen) for test
