Jules716 Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 I installed the android radio that is pretty much plug and play. Everything worked fine then a couple of days later my key fob was lost. Had a locksmith come out to program a new fob and the battery was dead. Noticed that one of the cargo lights had stayed on. He jumped the car with a jumper box then programmed the fob. Later when I went to use the car I noticed that the dash cluster lights were steadily turning on and off about every 30 seconds. Narrowed it down to the radio and as soon as I unplugged it the issue stopped. I reinstalled the oem radio and no issues. Any idea of what could have happened ?

Dodgems Posted February 21, 2023 Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 Call whoever you bought it from. Sounds like faulty radio. Which radio was it that you installed? I wonder if it was keeping the bcm awake since it was activating the dash lights. That will certainly kill a battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
