What to check next
Diagnostic guidance. Suggested checks and possible repairs are separate from the owner's reported results.
Clarify whether only the light or the radio’s audio also remained on, whether the unit was factory-installed or aftermarket, and whether the light eventually went out.
Guidance references and applicability
Source: Original question and visible replies. Owner reports and other participants' experiences are distinguished. Next steps are editorial requests for clarification or existing diagnostic findings, not a verified repair procedure or an independently confirmed component diagnosis.

All I will say/ask is first...Is the stereo aftermarket, and was it professionally installed? If so then I would bring it back, they wired up the power to the wrong area, and second...Is the radio still on completely or just the light. And if it is factory, then a good inexpensive radio isn't hard to find and plus they seem to have a better sound anyway. Hope that helps a little
