My 1.4 SX (with engine off and locked) = No illuminated switch. My 160SR (with engine off and locked) = No illuminated switch. It's not a switch I have EVER looked at before, hell nobody where I live has to lock their cars, let alone lock themselves into their cars..... where do you work...

Off out to look at my switch..... it's a feature I have never used o_O

Well.... the switch is not short circuiting then.... it's working fine! Do you drive with your lights on? If so, that switch will be illuminated.

If it only happened once and all is now fine don't worry about it mate...... the starter on my 15 year old Micra (141,000 miles) has made a few strange noises over the years but it has never failed. Just see how it goes. Mike.

BTW..... my bolts also had springs attached.

I had the EXACT same thing.... took the car to a garage and the mechanic put the OXY torch on both studs until they were red hot and he extracted them easily with grips. No need to re-tap, the new bolts went in fine.

Glad you got it sorted mate. Any photos of the new car?

Get one of those German Cobra exhausts mate...... a few months in and I can honestly say that was 99 "Euros" well spent..... a definite (slight) improvement in performance and an awesome (understated / quality / subtle) tone from the exhaust...... very nice indeed and takes 5 minutes to fit, and...

I had the exact same thing last year and it was the camshaft sensor. Fine when the engine was warm but all over the place when cold......
