    Radio problem!

    when the radio is plugged in, the door open light is on, but once the fuse on the radio is pulled, the light goes on. If the radio stays plugged in it drains the battery. What could this be? Its on a eagle talon.

    sounds like a ground, could be a wire shorting out to metal... pull radio out trace the wires as far back as you can to see if there are any split/open wires

    is this radio wired into the factory plug??
