YOU COULD PULL THE KEY OUT IN ANY POSITION

I HAVE A 2003 SATURN VUE AWD. WE HAVE ALWAYS HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE LOCK CYLINDER, YOU COULD PULL THE KEY OUT IN ANY POSITION. I CHANGED THE TUMBLER AND KEY SET. JUST PRIOR TO CHANGING THESE PARTS(WHAT MADE ME DO IT TO BEGIN WITH) A 12 PACK OF SODA FROZE AND EXLOPED IN THE BACK SEAT OF THE TRUCK AND GOT OVER THE WHOLE INSIDE OF THE TRUCK. AFTER WIPING DONE THE INSIDE OF THE TRUCK THE BATTERY WENT DEAD. COME TOO FIND OUT THE STEREO POWER WAS STAYING ON. NOT JUST THE LIGHT BUT IT HAS FULL POWER LIKE THE KEY WAS ON.?

  1. the radio will need to be removed and power checked on the Accessory Power feed wire. If there is no power on that wire, but the radio is still on, then the radio is the issue. If there is power on the wire, then there is a short to power. Make sure to test the wire with the radio unplugged.
