Is it possible that the battery in your cell phone is powering your stereo?
Try disconnecting the battery under the hood to see if your stereo still
plays with your cell phone plugged in. There is a cigarette lighter socket
battery backup gadget that uses a 9-volt battery to save the presets on the
car radio when the battery under the hood is disconnected.

Subject: DML: weird power problems (accesory/ignition switch)
Is it me, or has anyone else had this problem....
I gto my cell phone plugged into my cigarette lighter.... and I shut my car
off... my stereo continues to work with the key OUT of the ignition... as
soon as I pull the cell phone.... the stereo powers down. It used to do this
before when I had a stock stereo, and a power inverter in the cigarette
lighter....
I dunno... that seems really odd to me... really not a big deal... I just
dont wanna accidentally forget and find myself with a dead battery...
