If its not the factory fit radio, then maybe its been fitted incorrectly.

The C3 wiring doesn't follow ISO specification for power.

Pins 4 and 7 on the power side are transposed and could be the cause of it not switching off eventually.

The C3 will require a specific adaptor to get the sony to work as the sony is ISO and the C3 isn't quite ISO.
