ok so the other day getting homr from normal stuff, and got out same way i always would. later in the day went out to go to work and my radio, actually is was the cd playing, was on inside the car and pretty loud. the doors were locked, windows all the way up, no key or anything!!??!! it freaked my wife and I out, i have never seen that happen before. the car does have a aftermarket radio but not a special one. any ideas on what could make this happen?? thanks for the info

 

A poor installation, a defective ignition switch or a ghost.

 

+1 on poor installation. It's getting power directly from the battery, it's probably draining it too.

 

ya it sux cuz when i bought the car i didnt even ask the guy where he had the things installed at. ill have to look into it more if it happens again. but how would it get power from the battery with nothing charging it, meaning the ignition key not even in. and my wife thinks its a ghost too

 

ghost FTL.. but maybe you can negotiate for more HP if you let em take the car on your down time.

 

What Cd you had in the player?

The battery will be charged while driving and that could easily power up the radio...... if the radio is getting power directly from the battery. That explains why you didn't have the key in and it still got power.

 

it was my wifes justin cd the new one and maybe it could have been powered from before but we werent out driving for too long

 

His battery better always be charged, it is what starts his car! The battery is recharged while driving, to keep it full. Also, as long as you turn the radio off, it will drain little power from your battery.

 

well the radio turned off and always turns off when we take the key out which is why it makes me wonder wth?? like the first post said ill have to double check the installation.

 

maybe he was just bringin sexy back

 

Ghost.......woooooooooo..lol

 

ghost..lol
poor installation if it's not stock

 

It is almost Halloween you know....Just a thought....

 

Some kinda timer or something?

 

so you came out and your car's audio was on? without the key in the ignitiion? i call shenanigans.
