Faulty Overhead Control Panel - battery drain
Hi Guys,
The battery drain problem has been sourced to a faulty overhead control panel. Anyone else have this
problem? Would it be difficult to replace myself?

i'm having the same issue with my C32..
my center overhead control panel (lights and sunroof) made a sound like it was on and taking current even if the car was off.
I unplugged the brown center wire and the noise is gone and battery does not drain.
In the C32's, we had the same issue with the seat modules, but not the Overhead control panel.
The real test is when I don't turn on the car for a few days.. (usually the week-end)
so.. I'll see if this fixed the battery drain problem.
