Hi,
I originally had this problem over a year ago and at the time I removed the Headlight relay for 48 hours and then reconnected and it has been fine since.
However the problem has just started happening again, it is intermittenant. When I have the headlights turned off they just come on of their own accord, even without the iginition in. Whilst the headlights are on, if I turn the light switch to put the side lights on then the headlights go off and the side lights come on.
Last night I disconnected the Headlight relay so that it would not drain the batterys, but when I tried to start it this morning I just got a click.
I connected a booster charger and started the car then let it run for 20 minutes. The headlight relay is still disconnected. After 20 minutes I stopped the engine and the car started with its own batterys. I did notice that there seemed to be a lot of clicking going on under the bonnet for a few minutes after I turned the ignition off
I looked all around for something turned on that was taking charge from the batteries but all was turned off. I did notice that the airbag light on the dashboard was on all the time, this has only just started happening.
After 30 minutes I have just tried to start, and again and it is as dead as a dodo.
Both times this has happened in the past is shortly after the it has been parked up at an airport without use for 4 days, not sure if this is relevant.
Any help gratefully recieved.
