Chevrolet Silverado Battery Problem

I just replaced the battery and now my radio remains on and the electric windows still work even with the key turned off and the doors open. Is there a reset for this?

Take the battery back out, and hook the Positive cables and the negative cable together and turn the key to the on position for about 30 minutes. This will reset all the electronics. Then shut key off, disconect batt. cables and re install battery, put the positive cable on first, then the neg. cable and let truck sit for 30 minutes before starting. Thanks for using 2CarPros
