Why does my radio turn on when I turn on my headlights?
I just picked up this car, an '89 GTA, and discovered a blown fuse that prevented the dome light, hatch release switch, and power antenna from working. I replaced the fuse and all worked fine. While replacing headlight motors I found out that without the key even in the ignition when I turn the headlights on my radio will turn on. Is this strange but normal or abnormal and if so do you have any ideas about the cause or things for me to check? Thanks for any help.

Fixed appears that the ignition switch is the culprit.
