Radio won't turn off automatically

2002 C4 Cabriolet

I replaced the original cassette radio with a CDR 220 (cd) radio. Everything worked great for months now all of a sudden the radio won't shut off automatically when you turn the car off and remove the key. You can turn the radio off manually but wondering why this problem has popped up.

The radio always has power so the radio itself must be at fault.

Try removing and cleaning the faceplate.

If that does not fix it you may need to contact Becker.

Would think this is an internal switching problem, could be with the car wiring or the radio operation, as power is always connected to the radio and an auxiliar power lead switch manages the vanity feature of turning radio on or off when keys are removed.

here is a wiring diagram, check out page 28 for location of proper switch/wiring location.

It could help to remove and replug the connector.
