I had a similar leak - tured out it was the windscreen seal. You might need a new seal

They key DEFINITELY needs to be in the lock for my radio to switch on.
I can use the radio with the engine off

No key in lock, no radio

As soon as the keys taken out the radio switches off and "BEEP BEEP BEEP!"

The ignition barrels not been modified AFAIK and I still have the original vw key!

its 3 positions.

Off
ignition on
starter

When the its "off" i can play my radio.
But as soon as I take the key out the radio (pioneer) switches off
wont switch on unless the keys in the ignition.
when i take the key out the radio beeps 3 times if i leave the face on.

So is the key in the ignition ...

Hello

I'm a newbie here!

Ummm just thought i'd add that my car radio will only come on if there's a key in the ignition.

so is the key in the ignition equivalent to the "acessory mode"??
