When I turn off my M7060 the radio lights stay on and drains the battery. As soon as I start the tractor the lights go off and the radio is dead. Anyone have this experience before?

Sure sounds like it is wired wrong. From the radio there should be up to 4 wires, Ground, ( usually black) Always on(usually red), On with ignition( usually orange I think), and lights(usually yellow I think). The always on wire should use very little current as it's function is to keep the station presets. The on with ignition actually powers the radio and turns it on. The lights is solely to turn the radio lights on / off with the vehicle lights, many radios do not have this anymore.
Get a test light and verify how it is wired. Not sure about the yellow / orange wire colors

Wrong key switch? Bad key switch? Key switch wired wrong? Same questions for any relays in the affected systems. Just throwing things out there to see if they stick.
Whoever installed the radio made some mistakes.
Do you have the manual for your radio and if so post the wiring info.
Was the Kubota connector used or cut off?
