Cleaned Battery Terminals, Radio won't turn off. HELP!

Well it has been getting very cold here at night, so the first start in the morning, my truck would barely start. Bad batteries possibly? After driving it, turning it off and starting it an hour later, it would turn over fine. Only if it was sitting and got cold for more than 4 hours or so would it have issues turning over.

So i figured i would check my grounds etc etc, i disconnected all of the battery terminals and cleaned the cables and posts and got the corrosion off of the negative cable/terminals, put it all back on and NOW when i shut the truck off and open the door, my radio won't turn off?

It used to turn off as soon as i pulled the key and opened the drivers door, now all of the sudden it just likes to stay on... It has been on for about 20 min. now and won't turn off.

Any ideas?

Is it an OEM or Aftermarket Radio. Most aftermarkets have a rest button or you may have to change some settings.
