I bought the car back in february and i have changed a ton of things since i bought it. one of which was the radio. it had an aftermarket radio in it and i put a stock camaro cd player in its place. now when i turn the car off the radio stays on. its not my daily so its not that big of a deal but i have to disconnect the battery after i drive the damn thing. any ideas?

It might have to do with the RAP system. I would think it should shut down after 10 minutes but something could be faulty or the wires could have been altered.

once you turn the igniton off,power will be retained for 10mins(RAP) or until either of the doors are opened which cuts the circuit. is there any aftermarket harness still connected to the stock unit? if so i would start by rewiring it back to stock spec.

Wonder if the car isn't recognizing that a door has been opened after it's turned off so the radio continues to run.

i havnt checked to see if it will shut off after 10 minutes but if i shut down the car, and open the door, nothing happens. the radio stays on.

check this, happened to a buddys trans am.

did the aftermarket cd player stay on when the doors were closed, and turn off after you opened it?

i honestly dont remember, im pretty sure it did then too. i was able to turn it off manually so i didnt think about it. how do i check this?

Try opening the passenger door as an alternate. The driver door pin switch that turns on the dome light may be missing, malfunctioning, or not hooked up.
