my cars battery is going flat over night, its not totally dead but not enough power to start the engine.

When i have my lights on and put my indictors on they did when they flash :oops:

Also another thing ive noticed which i dont think is right is the lcd temepreture bit on the dash is still lit when ignition is switched off. not the numbers just the background sligtly lit. On closer inspection the two bulbs behind are on all the time. Also the indictors and demisters, stereo all work with the ignition off.

what could this be when i had the top dash off i noticed this

the two brown bits are block connectors which attach to wire together :?

even from the shit picture thats a dodgy immob/alarm bit of wiring which is most likely causing the problem.

There will be all sorts of wiring scotch blocked to the indicator wiring etc as well.
