I just thought I'd share this little trick I found to keep your screen from automatically shutting off when in the ACC position. Just access the Service Mode by press/holding down Menu, Map/Guide and Cancel (in that order). So now when you are parked with the engine off watching a DVD or playing a game your screen won't try to shut itself off.

But please NOTE: The automatic shutdown feature is there to prevent the screen from draining your battery. So I would not recommend leaving it like this for too long.

That's a great idea! I've been wondering how to stop that annoying thing from shutting down.

Thanks for the hint.

I assume it's easy to get out of that mode... I'm sure if I just go try it I'll figure it out.

awesome! i was getting tired of unplugging the wire harnesses off the nav's rom at the carshows AFTER the screen was on (on order to keep it from shutting down)

this will be much better at the next car show/event

THANKS for the inside tip
