Radio and electronics stay on after key has been removed

Hey guys,

So recently I encountered a minor issue involving my 2g TL. I was driving home from work (like usual), and when I got home and killed the engine, the radio and power window switch lights stay on; even after I removed the key from the ignition. I tried turning on the car and turning it off again but it still stays on. Does anyone ever had an issue revolving around this? I was thinking that it could be some bad wiring but I'm not too entirely sure. Please help, thanks!

Isn't that normal, until a door is opened or it times out?

This is the first time for me. Usually when I remove the key, everything turns off. But even after opening and closing the door, it still stays on. I think it would stay on all night if I didn't manually turn it off..

had the same problem when i did my 6spd swap. before it happened did u ever mess with any of your wiring prior to it or was it like a normal day and you hadnt touched anything before and it just happened? it happened to me when the battery was hooked up and the key wasnt in yet and everything would come on. i think it had to do with the ignition wiring that i wired up wrong so it was constantly on but i actually didnt figure out exactly where but i fixed it because when i went to redo all the wiring it went away after i switched some things around. idk if that helps but that was my experience wish i could be more specific with you but thats what i experienced.

Yeah when i take out the key from the ignition, the speedometer still showed that the key was in the ignition. But luckily earlier I took out the key and everything was back to normal. Thanks for the help though!
