Hi Guys
So I got a 2007 Seat Altea XL 1.6 petrol
My issue is as it says in the title
Insert key into the ignition and it turns fine to position 1, accessories, ie radio etc all come on fine
yet trying to get to position 2, ie red lights on dash, internal fans etc I have a problem
The key will 90% of the time not go from position 1 to position 2, I can fiddle and twist and push and pull and it will go to position 2 and then on to stater motor engage and the car starts fine, took me 15mins last night to get it to turn from 1 to 2, the steering lock is not on, but still i try to wiggle the wheel about
Now here is the strange thing even with the key out fully the steering lock would not engage, i can turn the steering wheel full lock in both directions, yes it is heavy as engine is not running but I am sure it shouldn't let me do this
I have tried both of my keys but its the same with both.
Any ideas????
Cheers guys
