Dash turns on and off when key is out
« on: July 16, 2022, 10:31:26 PM »
My battery died so I put it on a trickle charger for the last week. When I went to check on it nothing turns on when I turn the key but when I turn it to off the dash turns on and off by itself, the key is even out of the ignition. Sometimes when I turn the key it will just flicker quick  and that’s it. Thinking maybe that is what caused the battery to die.  Not sure if it could be an ignition switch issue or what. Anyone else ever have this issue? I’ve attached a video to show what it’s doing.

If it stops doing that with the charger off the battery, probably an open cell. Have it tested and replaced if necessary.

If it does that regardless of the charger on, it could very well be a faulty key switch, or something shorting the dash display wiring. I would test the switch first, then start under the display and work back from there.
