Radio cannot be turned-off

[Niterider]

This morning when I openned the car door, the radio was on. I was taken aback. I checked the ignition. Not key in the ignition. How did the radio come to life? I tried to turn it off by pressing the volume dial where the on/off button is located. The radio lights went off alright, but it continues to provide music. Strange!Finally when nothing seems to stop the radio, I pulled out the fuse for the radio which is located in the glove compartment. It worked.Seems like a short circuit somewhere and may have to send in to AB for a check. Anybody experience this before? :angry:

check your ignition key switch.

I put back the fuse this morning and the radio is back to normal, as if nothing had happened.

Weird!

Must be one of those electrical gremlins which plagues most continental cars.
