Sirbutler Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Hey guys.... Toady when I shit off my truck and opened the door the radio was still on along with the cluster lights. I played with the ignition switch and the light switch and it finally shut off.....any ideas what this is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blown 346 Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Mine only does this on occasion but never stays on for more than a few seconds. It started after my radio install and the GM0S-04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb2big4u Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 (edited) I think someone posted a while back on this and the consensus was the door latch sticking that senses the door is open. The fix was to spray some wd40 or like product Sent from Rezound using Tapatalk 2 Edited January 13, 2013 by TampaVmax (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb2big4u Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 So the switch is in the actual latch that holds the door shut? Truthfully I'm not sure and that's why I didn't specify. Hopefully someone from the other thread can give a response. Sent from Rezound using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blown 346 Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) So the switch is in the actual latch that holds the door shut? Edit..... The switch is thru wiring that runs under the steering column, that goes to the radio. Not sure how it works, except its all electronic. It does go thru your radio. Back in the day it was just a plastic switch that stuck out near the door. Edited January 14, 2013 by Blown 346 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcsilveradoss Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 the door latch has a mini switch in it that senses when the latch open. bcm signals to the radio to chime. you are most likely dealing with a "lazy" door ajar switch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
