Truck electronics turning on randomly

[W8lifts]

So my Uconnect radio, and dashboard information thingy(not sure what you call it, has the miles and what not on it) the led usb lights and the transmission light (P, D N etc) lights up randomly (nothing else turns on, alarm doesn’t trigger)…Truck completely off, no key fob around…any ideas??? Winch installed, two exterior lights on two AUX switches, and window one touch mod installed. Never had this issue before, haven’t done anything to the truck in a long time. About to pull the window mod out and take to dealership, asking if anyone has any advise or has seen this before

Check the fuse box and make sure all the fuses and relays are seated properly.

Disconnect the window mod and see if the problem continues or goes away.

Checked the fuse box, holy crap almost everything was not fully seated…. A tad of a pain as I have the snorkel that sits on top of the box. Also reseated the front door connectors and removed the power from the window mod…so far so good, hasn’t turned on by itself yet

My UConnect will come on randomly, play for a bit, then shut off. I haven’t had an issue with the other stuff. It has done it since day 1, before any mods.
The dealer says it needs an update that was supposed to be released 2nd quarter ‘21…

I’ll update this on what the dealership finds.

So this turned into something simple, dealership updated the Uconnect radio…problem hasn’t returned since, been about a week so I think it’s a good fix.
