    I have run into a problem. My radio and lights used to work together like butter and toast but now
    -when I have the car running my gauge light wont turn on until I turn my radio on
    -my radio turns off with the car nopt with the lights, (used to be the other way around)
    I am very confused at this point and wondered is anybody knew anything

    sounds like your light wire for the radio has gotten shorted to maybe a wire that is intended for a power antenna. I am assuming it is an aftermarket radio.
