Hi all , got a prob am hopeing for some help.
Had an alarm installed a few months back in my NA Fairlane. Worked brilliantly until today. interior light has decided to not turn itself off,Big oops and is setting the alarm off all day. Can't work out why they wont shut off.
I hit 2 buttons on climate control simultaneously , was told would give me any error messages, instead now my dash keeps flashing on and off , car drives fine , but dash wont stay on.
Thought it must be the alarm so i rang the guy who installed it, he checked it out and is stumped as why this is happening , except the interior light will trip the alarm.
Any help on how to fix the interior light error and getting my dash back to on would be extremely helpfull.
Cheers

Not entirely sure, but possibly a s**t fuse, crappy earth, or maybe BEM.
