Hi, I'm a bit worried that I might have screwed something up. I took out the dashboard ACC panel and one of the heated seat swithches, to see if I could fix some of the lights that were not functioning, and when I placed it back, I turned on the ignition to see if it all worked well again. At that moment I heard dome sort of soft explosion, a loud "Puffff", kind of like a backfire that I used to have a lot when the car was till on LPG. I did not crank the engine, just turned on the ignition I also noticed a strange smell. I did not dare to start it, due to the late hour, and I could not notice something irregular under the hood, so today I'll take a look. Anybody have any clues?
