Car won't shut off
 
Swapped over from a Microtech to a stock FD harness and Adaptronic. Car turns on with no problems but when you try to turn it off it will stay on even without key in the ignition. Have to turn off pump manually for it to shut off. I was recommended to try a different ignition switch so I swapped a spare on that I have and the issue doesn't go away. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Something very similar happened to me this summer. It was the yellow relay on the drivers fender. EGI main relay. Says JE16 on the relay itself. I was able to use my AC relay to drive the car temporarily.

Hope this helps.

Once the relay was stuck, my dash was lit up when we connected the battery. No key. I pulled that relay and everything went out. So I knew I had found it.

I had this problem and turned out the tires had worn out my harness on the drivers side and caused a whole bunch of strange behaviour, one thing was that the car would not switch off when removing the key.
