strange radio

i have a 96 ranger and the radio out of a 2000 explorer with am/fm/cd/cassete everything works ok but when i shut it off at night the lights behind the controls stay on real dim and i just noticed the time it said 105 am i bthought i was in an alternate universe is there any way to fix this or just ignore it?

Dunno.... maybe the guys in the mini-Ranger or Explorer forum would know.

Sounds like stray voltage or it is sourcing power when it's not supposed to. Check your connections and ID which circuit it is tapped into.
