Hello there.
Today i changed all of my corsa interior lights to blue leds, incluind the MFD clock (wich displays the local time, temperature and date).
After finishing the job i noticed something strange..
The MFD only lights up when i turn my car lights "ON".
It's that normal?
I think that before doing the mod, the MFD lighted up with ignition..
Could u please confirm me if there is any problem?
Thanks.

They are lit differently depending on the headlights, but yes, it should still light without the lights off.
LEDs don't dim in the same was as regular bulbs though.

I had this, fixed it early on as it was annnoying me.
Take your mfd back ooff and make sure you have
put the clip in all the way i know it sounds silly but thats what fixed mine.
i had all the pins in but 1 end one which must have ran to the ignition wires.

Thanks a lot Markus and Ian.
Problem solved with Markus solution.
=)
By the way, i was driving a VW Polo MK3 and now i changed to a black Corsa 1.5 TD SPORT from 1997.
Things i've modified already:
- Exhaust Tail (7.5cm chrome)
- Replaced all Interior lights with blue Leds
- Changed the standard Opel "Logo" in front and back of the car with a yellow version of it.
- Replaced wheels to Corsa GSI stock wheels (14") - looks great
Next Purchase: Angels Eyes

That sounds exactly like our Vauxhall Sports, but with a diesel engine. We had the 1.5TD Isuzu engine here too, although it's really quite rare.
