[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 943725, member: 52972"] l1tech, I have never heard that Ford's do not shut down everything when you switch the key off?? What is the purpose for that, and why does it take up to 45 minutes to complete the shut down? I know that some things like radios, clocks and some other electronic devices like alarms and remote locks require a small amount of battery power while the ignition is off, but what else is using battery power for 45 minutes after the key is shut off?? I know that some cars with electric fans can have the fan run for a few minutes after being parked, but nothing close to 45 minutes. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
