Been out for a long ride today. When I got home I shut the engine off, turned the key off and removed it - but my lights and the dash stayed illuminated. I put the key back in and jiggled it a bit and removed it, but it stayed the same - the lights are on, the clocks and dials illuminated and everything is still ‘on’ except that with the key removed it will turn over but not start and it also gives an F1 error.
Strange.
So, I quickly popped the seat and unscrewed the negative terminal and everything went off. I popped the seat on, went for a brew, and about 20 mins later came out and connected the terminal - and she’s still the same. Everything is ‘on’ but without the key inserted.
So…. Is my ignition/key unit buggered…!
Yep, it’s had some wd40 down there. I do it each time I wash it.
Other than that, it’s never done this before. Anyone else had this?
