remote starter and stock stereo
Hello,
I have an 02 z28, and I just got a remote starter. My question is if I remote start the car, but then decide to turn it off with the remote again, the radio stays on, usually the radio will turn off as soon as a door is open; I have the stock Monsoon.
I think I remember something about the radio turning off after a certain amount of time with the car off, but I am not sure.
Can someone give me some info, as I don't want to accidenlty kill my battery.

RAP (Retained Accessory Power) keeps the radio going for 10 minutes or until a door is opened.
So you can either trick the BCM (Body Control Module???) into thinking that a door opens when you use the remote to turn the car off, OR turn the head unit off each time you kill the motor in case you start it with the remote.
Of course, I guess you can also try to completely disable the RAP stuff.
