    I think he meant the ignition lock? and if so, yes, not a full 90 degrees to turn on to the unlock position

I am trying to find a solution the problem but in the meantime, am driving without the ACE relay to avoid having to open the bonnet and removing the relay every night. My battery drains in less than 48 hours if I leave the car locked with the relay in.

    Its the small yellow relay in the under-bonnet fuse box. R14. Last Relay towards the firewall, right hand side when looking from the front with bonnet open.

    Mine did this when I bought it. I dont know where people get the idea they can just pull fuses and relays and stop the SLS trying to self level. I dropped in to a local so called LR Mech and they pulled the fuse and said that'll be your problem. It wasn't.

    I blamed it for killing my alternator. Every morning the battery would be drianed. Enough to load up the alternator to recharge the battery but not enough to stop it starting.

    You need Nanocom or similar to turn of SLS and set it to coil rear.

    Happy Days.
