accessory power
this is something i've been struggling with for a while and wondering if somehow i can change it......i have the retained accessory power option so that when i turn the car off {and don't open the doors} i still get power to windows, radio, etc.....however, there are certain times when u still would like to listen to the radio when ur door(*) are open {like when ur cleaning out ur car at the carwash}....yet i can't get my key to turn backwards....so is there anyway to keep power to the radio w/ the doors being open? cuz the only way right now is to have it in the "on" position but then ur SES light is on and stuff in the engine starts running and ur not suppose to keep the car in that mode, right?

Try pressing in slightly on the lock cylinder as you try to turn it back for power....sometimes when they haven't been used much they are a little fussy.
