I just started experiencing this today. When key is turned off, everything shuts off (cluster, stereo, temp + pressure gauges) except the engine and MAFT PRO Has anybody experienced this before? I looked up the wiring diagram for the circuit in the TCCS, and I plan on starting by testing the correct ignition wire tomorrow. Just wondering if this has happened to anybody else.

Well, mine keeps running, but that's because it's supposed to, so that the remote start "knows" that I didn't leave the car in gear.

You sure that you don't have a turbo timer or remote start installed? :p (Gotta ask the obvious questions first sometimes.)

I have not installed a turbo timer or a remote start, and I have not noticed any additional module that could have been from the previous owner. This this the first time this has happened.

I stalled it out. I forgot to mention that when the key is in the off position, the RPMs at idle drop. In the case of dieseling, I do not think that it is likely either. I have checked to make sure the injectors were not visibly leaking and they do not smell like fuel. The injectors were sent off and flow tested while I was doing my rebuild. The engine will refuse to shut off whether it is hot or cold.
