Do you have a radio that won't shut off when you open the drivers door? This is probably your problem

WHEN I OPEN MY DOOR ON THE RIGHT REAR THE LIGHT DOESN'T COME ON AT ALL. THAT A LIE WHEN YOU OPEN A DOOR AND THE LIGHT DOES NOT COME ON ITS EITHER A BAD SWITCH ON THE DOOR SENSOR. EVERY DOOR HAVE A DOOR SENSOR ON THE BODY FRAME OR THE DOOR. DEPENDING ON MAKE AND MODEL.

@MileyCyrus192 Is it a lie ? Or is the bulb burned out ? I bet you never checked did you!

@MileyCyrus192 Wow...youre a dumbass...this is a ASE Master technician giving his knowledge for FREE! and with a video...go somewhere else and kill yourself would ya?

So . . . maybe I'm missing something. How, if both pins in the RAP relay have power all the time, is it turning off? The way I understand it, the door switch (mini wedge?) closes, allowing the ground path to close to the BCM. The BCM then closes ground to the RAP relay, which pulls the switch from the IGN hot pin to the other pin, which is also hot? Which part of that have I got wrong . . .

Thanks. Love the videos, by the way, Duane.

i have a radio that never can be shut off while the key is in the ignition, no matter how i rotate the power knob to all positions, it just refuses to die !! .

@MileyCyrus192 If you took the time to listen to the explanation in the video and the logic leading to the diagnosis, you wouldn't be asking such a question.

@woog74 Close that's a Snap on Verus he's been using it for some time. It's not only a scan tool it has a 4 channel lab scope too. Hes been using it for as long as I can remember.

[woog74]

What kind of scanner is that? Looked like a "Versus"? Is it a BCM specific scanner? Or is it just a scanner that is not as common, such as a Genisys or a Modis? How do you like it? Do you have any videos on it?
