Is it even possible to turn the stereo display off when listening to radio?

LOL. I am sitting in a parking lot waiting for my son getting back from a school trip. Just killing time.

If I turn off the engine (and the key) my radio will play with a dark display.

Turn car completely off, then push the radio power button. It will play for about an hour and then shut itself off.

My car is a 2006 Jetta.

Do you ever open up the Owners Manual and read it, instead of posting here?

I have seen a few screen options to turn off display on my RNS510. I have never done it and do not remember what I was listening to at the time.

Sure... sure... You gave up on Belichick after the scandal broke, taping opposing teams defense signals. I don't think the $500,000 fine was liberal enough either, that is beyond unethical. He should have been banned from the sport altogether. :D

New England Patriots head football coach Bill Belichick listens to one of many questions he refused to answer on accusations the Patriots illegally filmed New York Jets defensive signals from coaches on the sideline during the Patriots season opening vict (AP Photo/Stephan Savoia)


Turning the Pat's off is always a good screen option /pass play.

Anyone know how to keep the stereo on when you turn the engine off? I don't like idling a lot, but don't want to interrupt what I'm listening to...

I don't believe there is a way. However, once the car is off you can press the radio's on button to turn it back on.

Keep the politics out of it... Plenty of other sites for that.

If you can't do the time don't do the crime. Besides what happened to good sportsmanship versus winning at all costs?
