Interior lights on a SEAT Alhambra - is this right?
The interior lights on my Alhambra have started to stay on after the ignition has been turned on, and also after getting out of the car and locking with the remote fob. The lights go out eventually. Is there a time delay relay if so where and what number is it or could this be an earthing fault?

Yes, basic fault and the light is remaining open circuit. Switch if off completely, and if that does not work, remove the bulb so the circuit cannot complete, otherwise it will drain your battery overnight.

True seven-seater with more cheerful trim than its VW Sharan and Ford Galaxy equivalents. Good car-like drive.
