When the car has been left a while, locked and then unlocked and get in the car I've noticed the vs multichanger in the glove box just cycles through for a minute
I've been having some electrical issues due to increased battery discharge
I wander whether this could be causing an issue.
Anyone else experienced this, or might know why this is occurring?
Anyone know where the fuse is for this?

If it's the front glovebox mounted one then I think the fuse is in the front fuse board which is (I think) in the passenger side footwell if you look up.
I would be surprised if it was the actual unit as they don't draw much power. It's only a CD player. Still possible though.
You may have to start looking for a 'parasitic draw' on the electrics if everything else gets eliminated.

Yes it's the one in the front glove box
I don't think that will be drawing the power to be honest
As only hear it spin and cycle through when I unlock and open the door
Just strange for it to do it

Yep I have the glove box mounted multi unit, and mine has done the cycling ever since I got the car, I just presumed its normal.
Oh and mine has hardly ever had any discs in it as I use an Ipod...

Mines only started doing it and so don't think this is normal
