Default Flat battery

Went out to the 200 auto this arvo and flat battery ! have not had a chance yet to speak to missus, last nights driver.

But I rolled the 200 auto (non q) down driveway to let kid out and power up the Exclusive and when I get back down the drive again, the 200 autos radiator fan is going !!!!!!!!! no key in, not started yet, what caused this to kick on and could it have been mysteriously running all night !

Any offers ?

Default Pull the after run relay and see if it stops.

it's the brown one in the aux. relay panel behind the drivers knee bolster.

Default Re: See link, Ok will check it all

Can't see how that fan could kick in without the engine starting and not only that a good 3-4 minutes after rolling it down drive.

Just what I need dodgy electrics on the 200 auto ......

lucky I got whole box of relays off the others, (check Audi lane pic)

Never had a flat battery ever with the Exclusive or the old 100 auto ...
