Lighting issue help

I've been having this issue for a while and posted previously but got no help. hoping i do this time lol.

When the car is turned off, my sidemarkers and taillights and license plates lights stay on. thought it might be my aftermarket sidemarkers so i change it back to oem but still nothing. Any ideas what the problem might be?

also, my radio lights do not turn on either. so at night, i can;t see anything not sure but maybe it's related?

thanks for the help.

How long do the lights stay on?
Have you checked fuses for the radio?
Any other electronic mods?

checked all fuses seems fine. they stay on 24/7. the only electronic mods i have are switchbacks with resistors and subs.

I'm having a similar issue, my radio lights stay on even with the car off and the key inside, I had HID fogs off which I disconnected but have no idea what to do. I would recommend putting everything back to stock.

Since the accent lights are connected to your parking/head lights I would think either the resistors or the fogs may be the issue if your have hid fogs. I've been stuck on this problem also for about 2 months so hopefully the right person chimes in.

i guess i'll look into the fog lights also. I thought the resistors might be the problems so i bought news ones and replaced on side but that didn't help at all.
