Uncommon Issue: Acc Mode On With Key Removed
I'm new here. I'm hoping one of you have the answer to this uncommon issue.
Yesterday I had my rotors, pads, and calipers replaced on my 2005 Sport V6. After picking up the 4Runner at the shop, the radio and light on the clock panel stay on with the key removed (they will stay on indefinitely, I had to just turn the power off the radio and hoped my battery wouldn't die overnight from the light). Basically, it's stuck in ACC mode with the key removed.
Today I talked to a friend who suggested checking the "ACC CUT" relay, so I checked it (with a new one) - nothing. Even pulled the relay out to see if it would change anything - it didn't.
Had the battery & charging system checked, they're working fine.
I then took it back to the shop that replaced the brakes. They've tried diagnosing the problem and are unable to find whats causing the issue.
My friend (who's a Toyota tech in a different part of the state) says the wiring diagrams show him that the ignition switch is what powers those items - so theres a chance it could be a bad ignition switch. He suggests unplugging the switch to see if it will turn off the acc mode. He said that the switch may not be the final problem, but unplugging it may be the next step to determining the issue.
Anyone have any ideas on what the issue may be? I appreciate the help!
note: I don't think this issue has any relevance to the brakes being replaced, but figured I'd mention it.
