So a while ago i had problems with flashing interior lights and indicator issues with a clicking relay also. I found 2 faults by process of elimination. First a stop and tail light was rammed into the rear ns indicator fitting and second the front ns indicator holder was fubar.
Yesterday i got into and started the car after work and unusual for me opened the passenger door to let a fly out.
Wish i hadnt.
The dreaded 3 second interior light flash. No door open signal on the dis and the click click click of the relay somewhere infront of me.
With the engine and ignition off the interior light goes back to nornal and the rapid relay click goes to a 10 sec click.
No damp under carpet, cl pump dry and clean pollen filter correct, drain grommets removed last year but bulkhead dry anyway.
I guess the issue could be narrowed down to the lock itself. Strange and may only be a coincidence but the pass front door needs a firm slam to engage full closure. Lock and latch are both positioned identical to drivers side though.
Micro switch ?
Here is a spare lock from my s4 breaker
I take it the micro switch is at 3 oclock on the picture.
Had a play at trying to remove it but i am a bit of a bull in a china shop and dont want to break it esp if it is easier to swap out the whole unit.
Any advice guys. Am i barking up the wrong tree with this?
