Question SAFC stays on with key/ignition off and other problems?

ok, to start this off......
tonight when i got home i shut the car off and the SAFC stayed on, and i apllied my E-brake and the light stayed on for it also...i dont know whats happening???
i un- hooked the battery and re-hooked it up and i could here the beeper going of but its sounded like it was dying as it beep for about 5 seconds then stopped..and the SAFC swtayed on even after that....
where do i start????

and before all of this i was coming home and decided to kick her sideways a little...
i did and it cut out for a second then my car went super lean for a little while...i had to climb this huge hill in 4th gear trying to stay out of boost.....
i made it up the hill and stopped....idle holds great and it still has its normal power down low...
i shut it off for about 30 minutes...went out and took it for a drive and it was back to normal....?
no clue as to what is happening???
could maybe a wire connecting the SAFC to the harness be coming loose??

Did you not turn the key back far enough? I can get the key out of my FC with the key in the accessory (or, for that matter, the run) position.

sounds to me like a dying battery or weak altenator. Mine did the exact same thing, come to find out it was a very weak battery. Hope that will help.
