Radio battery drain
04 g35 coupe auto 123k miles
just picked up a g35 with the aftermarket double din and wen I bought it I noticed when key was off the power light on the aftermarket radio stayed on. I thought it was normal but 3-4 days later the car won’t crank. The first thing that came to mind was the radio, I don’t think It fully turns off wen key is turned and removed. The power button on the radio stays lit and I can hear a small hiss meaning there is power running through it still ....what can I do to fix this issue ? I can remove the trim and disconnect the radio but it’s crucial to have music !!!
