Ignition Off, Radio ON (Module or senors?)
Posted: Mon Oct 03, 2016 7:54 pm
I have the typical "radio not turning off when door is opened" issue starting to become a regular thing. It started intermittent and has quickly gotten worse. I'm about at a 50/50 chance right now that it shuts off when I open the door. I'm looking to fix it up myself if at all possible.
The troubleshooting I've done is the following:
Both front doors have the problem - ie. ignition is off, open either front door, radio stays on
Open either back door and the radio always turns off
Car always knows when doors are opened - ie. DIC tells me when either front door is open properly (when car is running).
My question is - does the car have different sensors for knowing when the doors are ajar for the DIC and when they are opened for the RAP/Radio turn off? Why does it know the doors are open, but the radio stays on?
Does this sound like a module problem? Which module would it be, and how do I replace it?
