Post subject:  TX 1 electrical problems

I have a strange problem with my TX1 late 2001 model. On the second click of the ignition key you have all the accessories ie radio,wipers,blowers,intercom,windows,etc power on. Unfortunately when I take the key out every thing remains on. The central locking does not work and over a period of two/three days the battery runs down with every thing switched of. I've disconnected the ignition key with no avail every thing remains powered up. Is there some kind of latching relay somewhere that May have failed or more likely the mazy box at fault and if so where could I get a second hand one to swap over. Any one have any ideas?

Fit a power cut off switch on the live wire near the battery. Then you can turn everything off when you leave the vehicle.

take the key out leaving everything on, remove the battery +pos (red) lead, then put it back on

if its a faulty relay all your stuff "stuck on" will have gone off...

Although its still possible a relay has failed and will not reset by disconnecting the power.
