After nearly 1 whole year of completely trouble free running, not getting out the Hawkeye or any tools apart from an oil & filter change, pulling my trailer, shifting crud, and generally working every single day, my disco 2 (facelift) TD5 has a little problem :-(
Last week I went to get in it an noticed the radio was on... thought nothing of it...
Yesterday, after driving, switched it off, removed the keys... radio stayed on and it wouldn't central lock, just kept beeping the horn once (like a door wasn't closed) so I just turned the radio off and left it.
Today, after driving (radio on) switched it off, removed keys, radio went off and it central locked OK from the remote fob. I then walked past it half n hour later & noticed that the radio was on ? I unlocked and locked it from the fob, this worked correctly but the radio wouldn't turn off, so I manually switched it off.
Sounds like a fault on the auxillary circuit ? I'll dig out the circuit diagrams and take a look, but has anyone had a similar problem ?
Every time I've had a problem with my Disco in the last 3 years, turns out at least a few people have always had the same problem
Thanks
Mat
