Hi,

Ive got 2008 leon cupra and the engine wont turn off even tho i have pulled the key out. The only way i can turn it off is to stall it. Just wondered if this had happened to anyone before to point me in the right direction. Im presuming its an ignition fault?

Cheers

Chris

Do all the electrics like the dash and radio shut down when you pull the key out, or does nothing happen at all when you take it out??

It’ll be a bad earth. Take the key out and see what buttons are on (heaters air con etc) and try them all one by one and hopefully it turns off.

Get your main earth off and give it a good clean too.

I had a corsa Year’s ago that would keep running without the key when the rear de mister was on.
