will this make the radio stay on when you put the key in the off position? also does it have an adjustable volume for the chime?

The Metra retains all of the functionality that was present before installation. Including the delay in turning off the radio after the car is shut down. As far as the chime....I have heard that there was an adjustment one could make to decrease the volume, but I never needed to make that adjustment. With my install the box was situated inside the dashboard behind the radio so I guess that deadened the sound making it comparable to the factory set up. Personally I think it is quieter. Great product. Be sure to get an antenna adapter. Hope this helps.

if you hook it straight to the battery the radio will stay on when you turn the car off and you'll have to turn the radio off each time. if you use the red wire on the fuse box it will shut off each time you turn the car off. the volume button on your radio will adjust determ and your Bluetooth. I hope this helps you.

I honestly don't know, I think it would make the radio stay on until you open up a door, but that maybe something built into the GM radios not the computer. We just know that in order to change a radio out from a factory radio to an aftermarket radio, we buy this. The mecanic that showed us this method does not work here and we just took his advice. Sorry I could not be more help.

Mine stays on as long as the keyboard is being used. After sitting idle for a few minutes it will turn off like it's in a sleep mode. Once you tap a key, it comes back on.

Yes, chimes can be turned on or off, also set to sound only during the day. Not very loud, mine are turned on all the time.

Yes it does have an off switch. Has a low and high volume. Does go off sometimes for no reason.

No you preset by setting the switches inside the cover. I purchase two of these and they both ring when you press either door bell.And they do work well. But I use them in a garage where the chime is only about 30-40 ft away.

It's sound and motion. It will stay on but will turn off unless something passes it or makes a continuous sound

It has a manual on/off switch so yes it will stay in on position if input power is disrupted. It does emit a long beep once it looses input power, but not when power comes back.

not sure how to describe the chime you cannot change the chime but you can turn the volume to low or high. my son has it on low when the children are sleeping and has no problem hearing it.

According to the paper that came with it, you press either the sounds or the volume key to stop the alarm,. I tried it, but it doesn't work very well. The tune usually doesn't last very long, but there is one tune that goes on and on.

Yes, not worth it though. It doesn't stay in tune long enough for one song. Running keys are garbage!

JT, sorry for the delay. I cannot help you, because I immediately removed the key ring, because I do not like noises in my car. The car key case works perfectly and every time, after I close my car, I put the key in my bag.

As long as music is paying through ours, it stays on, but once it goes idle for a little while (about an hour I'd say, but I never timed it) it will shut off automatically.

Yes,you can mute the key volume.That would get a little annoying at time's.

Yes it is, I am actually having some issues with this item now. My radio does not go off when I open my door. I have to push the lock button on my door for it to go off. Seems like it won't last much longer.

no key change just effects, i have it hooked up to my magic sing and the magic sing karaoke mic has the key changer on it.

Whomever you had install it did so incorrectly. There is a wire that has power all the time, this power keeps your clocks and other things in the vehicle powered including the radio. If it is hooked up to a wire that only has power when the key is on you will loose programming everytime it is turned off. You need to take it back to your installer and have it fixed, pretty easy fix.

It will maintain the sound you select but the model I purchased has an automatic turn off after one hour. So it will not stay on all night. Suggest you buy a different model without the automatic cut out.
