Hey all.. got a bit of trouble with my lil Celi.. I've done a couple of the lighting changes posted here in the interior/audio forum.. looks mint, did the clock, dome, tun, ashtray and key ring.... BUT since i've done my keyring light (no changes, just a gel and piece of tic tac bottle..) The Accessories won't turn off... even when i'm out of the car and keys in hand...

It's not the door sensor.. cause it kills my headlights when i open the door and turns on the dome light.. then i hear my stereo beep (aftermarket does this when you forget to detach it) but then the stereo kicks back in and the clock comes on.. they fade in and out.. on/off etc..

ALSO.. i was just up at McD's grabbin some Breakfast.. driving my girl to work.. and CLICK the whole car DIES in the DRIVETHROUGH!! i can't even get out to push cause i'm jammed in by the wall.. my girl pushes us out to the parking lot i get out and push er good hop in and she jumps.. since then no cut outs bu it's only been 30 minutes

So now it looks like i can't leave town.. hell don't even wanna leave the driveway.. anyone have this problem? think it's a short? somethin i my ignition switch?

Any pointers would be a plus..
Thanks in advance - Flip

seems like some relay is jammed and not switching off... but it's just a guess .

HELP ME!!!!! i have a feeling that my ignition switch is bad but can this be something else? if i change the ignition switch do i need a new set of keys?
