radio will not shut off

Unread post by everguard » Tue Jan 27, 2015 2:19 pm

I have a 2010 buick LaCrosse. When I turn the ignition off the radio and dash lights remain on for at least 10 minutes. Sometimes the radio turns off and the dash lights stay on. Can this be reset so that the radio and lights turn off when I exit the car? Thanks, Ron

you should have a scanner hooked up and scan the BCM. See it sees the drivers door open and close. the micro switch may not see the drivers door open

I was away. Thanks for the advice. Why does the radio and dash lights turn off after 10 minutes? Is this a standard setting? Ron

could be a battery saver mode for the BCM. A setting so that people that sit in their car and listen to the radio won't kill their battery? Just guessing

Just google 95 buick regal factory radio and you should find plenty of images. Problem is that there is more than one option for radio. Do you have the owners manual? that would have the different model radios listed and shown in the book.
