They were linked to the parking lights on our old Bessie. Did you perchance turn the ignition off while the indicator was still selected as that will set the parking lights. Try starting her up. Lights on, lights off, ensure indicator stalk is in mid position, then turn it off. Does that clear it?

Oh.... And do remove the keys from the ignition. I can't remember what niggle that caused, but something similar. Something is linked to the immobiliser, from memory, if you leave the keys in, the immobiliser will not set.

Sorry. Couldn’t find glasses. At Henley campsite and turned off engine as well as lights but Orange lights each side remain on as well as 2 top white lights but no front headlights and no rear lights are on. Awning light stuck on and Alde panel not firing up?? Disaster

If the start it, lights on, lights off stop it, did not work, do it again, but then exit the van, close all door and lock it. Leave 20 seconds unlock, and start again. Also, is the main habitation panel coming on? Swift power off the panel if it's on when you start the engine. That relay could be sticking.

And the exterior marker lights are still on?

Never had an Alde so can't help with that. Hopefully someone with that experience can help. Out habitation fuse panel on the Bessie was let into the wooden panel right behind the drivers seat. If yours is in the same place, then slide the seat right forward. You should have a fuse layout in the manual so can check ( hopefully with a multimeter) the fuses that may be causing the problem. Difficult in the dark. Are you in EHU?

Hi, Thanks again. I found the Habitation fuse panel which also described which fuse was which. I pulled the awaning fuse and the marker light fuse. The Awning just went DIM as did the orange marker lights. The 2 roof front marker lights just stayed fully on and are still full on. I am with dealer Monday as fed up to teeth with this motorhome. Its only 13 months old and spent more time in workshop than on holiday. Appreciate help and advice
