a common problem is that the front seat adjuster system will go bonkers and will stay ON all the time---even with engine not running or key off--i just set my seat and unplugged the pigtail--Check to see if the trunk area lites are going off as well as the indoor vanity mirror lites--Also if you havw an aftermarket stereo-make sure that it is being feed by a "swithcted " wire-- and is not powered up all the time--
