Guest Nely Posted September 25, 2006 Report Posted September 25, 2006 Has anyone come across this problem... When i take the key out of the ignition, the starter motor starts cranking the engine until the battery is flat! With key in position 1, all stops but battery is flat by the morning as there is around a 1A load. All help and feedback appreciated! Hope it's not an expensive job!!! Currently dis-connecting the battery when parking. the Galaxy is 1995 2.0GLX with 112000 on the clock - in good shape other than this problem..... Quote
MrT Posted September 25, 2006 Report Posted September 25, 2006 When I take my key out of the ignition, the radio goes off so there is a switch that changes when the key is removed. It could be the wiring to the ignition switch is damaged or incorrectly connected Quote
johnb80 Posted September 25, 2006 Report Posted September 25, 2006 I'd be tempted to have a new ignition switch. Unplug the switch and see if the cranking stops, if it does it's highly likely it's the switch. Regards - J Quote
