Default radio stays on with key out and drivers door open

It used to be that with the ignition key out the radio would stay on only until the door was opened. Now it stays on and it must be turned off manually. Also, the windows can now be operated with the key out and the door open.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
Chris :confused:

I just put some WD-40 on my pins to fix it. I was opening the passengers door to shut everything off till I did that. :rolleyes:

well...
How can I NOT try WD-40 first (that is, as soon as the Mrs. brings my car home from out of town).
Thanks for the tip.
