I recently discovered that my car’s A/C, inside lights, and headlights are able to be turned on after I switch my car off, remove the key from the ignition, and lock the doors.

This is the first time it has happened in the two years that I’ve owned it.

Help!

Hi,

Do you mean the A/C turns on? As far as the other issue, is there anything additional you can think of that can cause it to happen. For example, if you lock it with the key rather than the fob, does it still happen? Are there any other electrical components that turn on? How long do the lights stay on?

Let me know as much as you can. This is an interesting one. LOL

Take care,

Joe
