Hi,

Looking for some help. 

The display in the middle of the dash is staying on even after locking the car with the fob. 

Just tried starting again then locking but remains on?

Checked all the doors and boot - all are closed and locked.

Any ideas why and how to resolve please? 🙏

    Easy to resolve - WAIT...

    It'll go off after about 20 minutes, it's designed like that whilst the car tucks up all it's electrical modules for a nice sleep...

    Didn't want to wake up tomorrow morning and the car not start. Panic over.
