#1: Remove key but engine still running. Author: sulli, Location: SheffieldPosted: Sun Apr 29, 2012 10:44 am ---- This happened to me about a month ago, just thought it was the car throwing and jidd, so let it slip by. But it has happened to me today as well I removed the keys and the engine is still running and drivable, i put them back in/out still no difference. To turn the engine off i had to stall the car, just been back out 10 minutes later and the car turns on and off fine, really starting to bug me now as i cannot work out what it is, I've noticed on both occasions it has done it it has been on a long run. All help appreciated Thank you.

Battery light come on when it carries on running?
#3: Re: Remove key but engine still running. Author: sulli, Location: SheffieldPosted: Sun Apr 29, 2012 10:47 am ---- Nope, no lights out of the usual? Sorry for being a novice will you expand on the fuel relay. Thanks.

Infinity when battery d/c

from Peugeot about this and they changed spec of the part subsequently.

The car could be started with anything flat that would fit into the ignition.

Forgot to say, I tried stopping by stalling however my ECU was still live so would drain the battery over night.
#15: Re: Remove key but engine still running. Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Tue May 01, 2012 3:06 pm ---- ^^?? Are you sure thats right? I doubt the ECU would driain the battery, stalling would not cause a fault with the ECU?
