Keeping radio on for drive in movie

[Ratchickens]

Is there a way to keep the radio on for more than 10 minutes without putting the truck into Run mode via the Start button? Right now I can just hit the power on the radio but it shuts off 19 minutes later which won’t be very helpful if I go to a drive in movie.

Is 10 min the max in the menu? If that is the case I think you are out of luck. There is no ACC mode that I known of just a RUN which even without the engine still runs hvac etc.

10 minutes is the max I see in the menu

I am really interested in this as well.

If you don't press on the break when pushing the run button it will turn on in ACC mode... But in my experience it still turns off after a while. I thought it was 30 minutes, but it might be 19 as you found. You can al as I just press the power button on the radio, but that turns off even sooner.

@JeepCares is there a setting to override this?

I wonder if an ODB-II dongle doing a system diagnostic every 15 minutes would prevent it from shutting off. 🤔

The problem with this mode is so much is turned on it seems like the battery would get drained quickly.
