Strange Electrical Problem

[horrace]

sup boys just seeing if anyone has had a similar problem, randomly the other day my clock and radio started staying on with the key out in park and all the rest of it (ATM im just taking the face off my stereo when its off). At first i thought it might just be dodgy wiring of the stereo but the clock is staying on too which makes me think it may be something else, both the engine bay and in cabin fuses are A OK, any ideas would be helpful othwise i will be going to the auto leccy i f**king hate electrics.

thanks,

Rhet

I would be tracing the power wires for the stereo back to wherever they connect.

Another idea is to use a (pro job) multimeter / (backyard job) test light / ( dodgy brothers 2 man job) 12v car globe with wires held and see what fuses have 12v with no ignition.

Whichever fuses have 12v with no ignition - check them against your fuse chart to identify what the fuse is for and if it indeed should have 12v with no ignition - then pull it out and see if clock and radio go out - proceed to next otherwise

Let us know how you go !

It could also be a constant live 12v wire touching your accessories. If pulling the no ign fuses and the problem is still there then pull the fuses that have power on them when the car is turned off.

Just think if you disconnected your battery it would go away. So then work your way back

thanks for the replies fellas, i was going to start pulling stuff apart this morning but when i came home from work last night it is performing normally again, so that pretty much confirms a loose wire somewhere. I have some spare time tomorrow so ill get in there and start poking around.
