I have a 200t and was wondering if there was any way that you can turn off the car's engine, but keep the electronics running. Right now when I put it on park and i press the engine on/off button itll turn off all my electronics.
any help would be great, thanks!

You dont wann drain your battery. I love sitting in my car, listen to music,drink my tea and watch traffic. What i did was buy a wonderboom 2 and just bluetooth my music .. that little speaker is amazing and solves this problem

You should be able to turn the electronics back on afterwards by pressing the Start button without having the brake pushed in. Haven't tested this myself recently but I think that's how it works.

To be honest, I am surprised it actually drained the battery enough to cause these issues. Did you have headlights or anything else running? Hopefully not A/C?
