Atos Lighting Fault

I have a 2006 Hyundai Atos with a gasoline engine. The lights switch on inexplicably, and there's an error code stored. I suspect a defect in the cable or plug connection. The vehicle has 47077 km. Has anyone experienced a similar issue, particularly with the automotive switch or fuse box?

A 2006 Hyundai Atos owner experienced an issue where the vehicle's lights would switch on unexpectedly, accompanied by an error code. The suspected cause was a defect in the cable or plug connection, possibly related to the automotive switch or fuse box. A similar issue was shared by another person, who suggested checking the dimmer and headlight switches for damage or loose connections. Following this advice, the owner consulted a technician who diagnosed and confirmed a faulty light switch, which was then replaced.

I had something similar happen on my old Opel Astra. The tail lights would randomly flicker. Have you checked the dimmer switch and headlight switch themselves for any visible damage or loose connections?

Regarding your Opel Astra, could you elaborate on the electrical issue you encountered? Was the problem intermittent, and did it manifest similarly, with the lights switching on independently? Were there any diagnostic steps you undertook before identifying the root cause, such as inspecting the fuse box?

It was intermittent, yes. The lights would flicker or sometimes just stay on. I fiddled with the switch a bit and it seemed to temporarily fix it. It ended up being a faulty switch. I'd suggest taking it to a workshop, they can diagnose it properly.

Following your recommendation, I went to a technician. The diagnostic assessment revealed a defective light switch, as you suggested. The replacement and labor cost 95€ . Your guidance proved invaluable.
