Power to radio all the time,PLEASE HELP!!!

[jay2984]

I woke up this morning and walked outside and heard music coming from my explorer. the radio was on and i have no idea why. i thought i might have left the key on over night and forgot about it but the key was in my pocket. Does anyone know what could be causing this? Its a stock radio and ive never touched the wiring.

The '96 up X has a control module that allows the radio to stay on after the ignition is turned off. It will stay on until the driver door is opened. I don't know a whole lot about the specifics on how it works, but it sounds like the control module or the dome light switch is the problem.
