Nissan Rogue Forum

Ok, driving home from work tonight, I went to change radio stations, but the lights on the Bose head unit were out! When I arrived home and turned off the ignition, the radio lights came on. WTF?

I am having the exact problem, i get them flickering on occasions.
I went to the dealer and he removed the radio and reseated the connections.

The issue is still there , I need to go back to the dealer and freak out on them .

My first thought was a burned out bulb, but decided as I drove it might be a loose connection, as it is a replacement unit.

However, as the lights came on when I turned the vehicle off, I had another thought (that makes two in one day!). On several occassions when I've turned the ignition off the radio continues to play for several seconds. I've noticed that the ignition switch seems to be a bit finicky (more like sloppy) when turning the vehicle on or off.

That is really odd! I hate electrical issues since they're often hard to diagnose and expensive to repair. Well, isn't everything? I dread having to fix that stuff once the warranty perspires.

Vulvania, what year is your rogue ? is your radio Stock ?

2011 SL w/ SV pkg (It's in my sig). My radio is the BOSE premium pkg. I'm hoping it was a fluke, but I'll have the techs check it the next time I'm in for service.

im very interested in finding out what your problem was. (subscribed!)

Haven't been back to the dealer as of yet, nor has the problem reoccured. However, on occasion when turning off the vehicle the radio has continued playing. While I can ignore this if it were only a note or two, there was a instance wherein I was almost completely out of the vehicle before the head unit finally shut off.

CHECK YOUR FUSES - ALL OF THEM I SENSE EITHER A SHORT, OR A FAULT.
sometimes is a neighboring fuse thats triggering the radio.
also check the radio fuse, when its blown it can trigger it to stay on all the time.
