Default NEW TIP: Push To Start Button

I have an aftermarket headunit (Pioneer AvicF900bt).

It always takes awhile to startup (30 seconds).

A lot of the time the car is running while parked and I want to listen to music but shut the car off. Well generally I used to just go from "ON" to "OFF" and then to either "ACC" or "ON" but not turning the engine on. Unfortunately when I do that the car shuts my headunit off and then its another 30 seconds until everything goes back on again.

If you are in "ON" and quickly hit the push to start button 2x. The car will go into ACC and will leave your aftermarket headunit on and running but will shut off the car and everything else completely!

It took me a couple times to figure out the proper way to push the button quickly enough. But i do it all the time now when I am early for work or waiting to pick someone up!

Hopefully this little tip helps someone else!
