Default Radio and trip info display stays on !

Trip information console, GPS, radio stays on after I turn off the engine. Any ideas on where to begin? Thank you.

You mean you can still listen to the radio with the key in your pocket?

Yes, radio, trip info display is iluminated and nav system is energized too. I did some research and might be the gateway ecu.

Did your car have after market radio? Have anyone messed with the harness. It’s not logical to have the radio on after the power is cut off unless you have a short ( not likely) or a miswired. Let us know what you find out.

Default Problem solved

I was able to isolate the issue, my radio and navigation system stayed on after the car engine was off. After some research I replace the ignition relay ($17) and boom,,,,, fixed, I am so happy, Thanks to all

Ignition relay location is in the engine fuse box, (the long one, passenger side, close to the battery). Is identified as IG2. I bought it from Advance Auto (but is Denso, made in Japan)
