Default Engine Remains On After Key Is Removed

Evening everyone,

I am a new member of this forum and new owner of a 2004 Coupe with 101,000KM. I inherited this car from my father recently.

I feel like this may be part of the issue so I will give a little backstory. My father became unable to drive and the car sat for 1.5-2 years. I recently started it up for the first time, and other than a super dead battery, a check engine light(my father said this was normal and periodically comes on and off) and a toast tail light. I checked the oil, gave the tires some air and checked the other fluids- everything was within the minimum and looking healthy. Ive put about 1000KM on the car since then with no issues- until yesterday.

Upon returning home from a trip in the city I parked the car and to my astonishment the car did not turn off when the key was removed from ignition. My astonishment only lasted a second because when I hit the brake the car turned off. I went for another ride today and the same thing happened, with the key being removed and then turning off a few seconds later.

I am wondering what this could be? A few google searches have pointed me in the direction of the fuel pump relay module. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks a ton! What you guys have done with this forum over the years is amazing.
