same on my 2004 Silverado... When exiting the vehicle I've found that I have to lift the exit handle all the way up to engage the switch behind the door panel. After doing this a few times the switch seemed to start working... (And radio would turn off...) If it does it again I'll be removing the door panel and cleaning or replacing a switch...
This problem is caused by a defective door ajar switch, this is what most call a "Dome light switch" Your vehicle has a function called "delayed exit", this means the accessories stay powered up until one of the doors is opened and the Body Control Module senses it and turns off the power to all the accessories like the radio, windows etc. To verify this open the passenger door, the system should shut off.
How long do they stay on. On most of the newer vehicles there is a 'convienance" lighting function that allows you to exit your vehicle and have light to get into the house before they shut off. This is usually anywhere from 30 seconds to 1 1/2 minutes, depending on the manufacture. If you turn off the light switch before turning off the engine they should turn off immediately.
Their is a relay/ fuse box under the hood thir is a relay that is probbly sticking corrison on the contacts inside is a commen problem remove the relay and try switching it with a twin relay that controls somethig else in the box and see if it shuts off the fan if so replace the relay avalible at most auto part stores.
