What I'm trying to do is listen to the radio in the garage (or elsewhere) with the car door open and not have the chime ringing the whole time. Is it normal for the door chime to go off whenever the door is open and the key is in ignition? I recently had a new stereo installed and thought before, if the key was removed and then re-inserted, the chime would stay off and the radio would work for an hour or so. But I might be wrong.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

with the factory stereo you can hit the power button with the key out and the stereo will play for awhile, I believe an hour, but im not sure about an after-market stereo.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
