if you dont want this to happen anymore this is a easy cheap inexpensive way to stop that.
1. expose you ignition harness and find the gray wire this is your accessory wire that shows 12 volts only when the car is on or in acc. tap into that wire and run a wire up to the deck.
2. on the factory harness thier is another gray wire also your acc. wire for the deck. cut that wire and hook up the wire that you ran up to the deck side on the deck side. this should fix your problem if it doesnt that means anything that hooked up to acc. should be doing the same thing (draining your battery) on thats bad! have it checked asap...
