Ferrari Mailing List: Lambo Battery Drain Partially Solved...

[Charles Perry (charles]

Well - I found the problem. Just not sure of the most permanent solution. Under each door are two spring switches. One appears to turn off the red courtesy light on the inside door panel. The other appears to be dome light control. The dome light control switch on the driver's door is not breaking the circuit when the door is closed, so it's leaving the interior dome light and the luggage compartment light on all the time.

 

The switch is good as it works properly when I press it in manually - just not when the door is closed. As a temporary solution, I folded over some cardboard from a pizza box and taped it into the door frame where the switches are supposed to make contact. Now it works properly, but my wife thinks it makes our Lambo look ghetto to have the pizza box taped to the door frame. I think it's an appropriately Italian solution, but I will defer to her.

 

So does anyone know if those switches are at all adjustable? They're covered in a rubber boot so it's not immediately obvious if the plunger reach can be adjusted.

 

I'd still like to know what all those designations mean if anyone knows. Thanks!
