I noticed that the radio will trun off after 5min or so from turing off the car.

Key in OFF position.
Operate the interior lamps by opening and closing the doors.

before we get into the next test/s

With the engine off and the key still in the Ign switch does the chime work when you open the doors

Also see if the chimes work when the key is removed but your headlight are on and you open a door

Im following this as well, my radio wont shut off and my interior lights dont turn on when the door is opened, no key chime or lights left on chime, no door ajar warning. From other reading I thought it was the door switch, I havent replaced mine yet but this seems to be more indepth testing
