On-Off switch? I can't find it. It configured and runs fine... but blurb says "It also includes a power switch built-in to prevent the need for having to constantly disconnect your unit from the OBDII port." Is it a physical switch or something via...

Paul I have never seen an on-off switch on my unit and unless something has changed since I bought my unit awhile back there is no timeout which then shuts the unit off. I accidentally left my unit plugged into my car when I left home to go on vacation and when I came back my car battery was as dead as a door nail.

As mentioned before you can use the on-off switch on the power supply. This device can also run from a PWM-modulated 12V DC power supply (which is why this is popular with RepRap hobbyists). The speed adjustment wheel also has an off position.

Plugs into obdII PORT and you leave it plugged it. Too many benefits to list. Love this product. Programming for more power and gas mileage is not a reason to get it. Rather having transmission temperature, rear view camera capable (need to purchase camera) locker operation in high, programming coolant fans when they come on and off is a big help, look at the website for more details at superchips.com. Loads of info about it. Program for bigger tires or changed gears. Tire pressure monitor control or just turn it off. Like I said to much to list.

There is no on-off switch. The unit draws very little power from its wall-wart power supply which would remain powered-up even with the unit switched off. I recommend leaving it on or controlling it along with the other audio equipment. Powering it up while monitoring its output results in a loud "thump."

Via a plug-in lighter unit--I found it bulky, as the unit should be mounted high on the windshield to maximise it's field-of-view. A long enough cord, however, I installed a fixture next to the mirror to keep the cords and plug out of the way. The unit has NO on/off switch

You have a constant, a negative, and a switch. So when you turn on and off the switch the stereo turns on and off. This way it's never left on. Tap into any power supply that has to do with the ignition turning on. Let me know if you have any other questions.

No, the unit is light-powered and you just put it back when finished and it automatically turns off. I, too, was baffled out of the box looking for off-key.

Newer cars have an onboard driving port located under the steering column. I found mine by searching the model of my car and determining where the OBD port was located

There is no on/off switch on the drive. I'm guessing here, but the only way to shut it down is to disconnect the power cord. I use it as my Carbonite backup drive, so it's always on.

Hello Timothy, no the SC system re-flashes the ECU for each mode. Once it has reprogrammed the computer to the desired setting, you disconnect the unit. If you want to switch to a different mode you reconnect the module to the OBDII port and reflash the computer again. I own a 2006 Nissan Titan and I've found that it hasn't really improved fuel efficiency even in fuel saving mode, but if your simply out for more power, it will definitely give you what your looking for!

The Older unit with the aluminum trim on both sides of the face plate has the auto sensing feature, so it doesn't need to have the power switch turned off. I'm not sure if that's the case with the new one. I would call Emotiva just in case for the new all black model.

If you don't want to record anything, you can simply use the power switch on the unit to turn it off. Of course, every time you stop/start the vehicle along your journey it's going to turn on automatically. Not sure what purpose you're trying to gain setting the recording time to off other than to perhaps stop it overwriting the card when full. When that happens, it displays Card Full and stops recording. I have a 32gb card and just let it continuously overwrite.

The unit has a manual power switch. I have not allowed it to remain powered on to see if the unit powers down on its own, but I'm going to say it does not given the seemingly hard-wired manual switch.- Stephen

Hello, this is the prefect unit for you because it does not have onstar function so you wont need it anyways. It is direct plug and play installation.

I have the 5 unit pack with the remote; there is no on/off switch on the socket itself. When unit is on and the power is interrupted, it turns off. When the power is restored it is necessary to use the remote to turn the unit back on again.

yes I prefer it that way. Their is no on and off switch on the unit. You can turn off the breaker but that too will cause it to recycle the settings every time it starts back up. The factory told me to leave it plugged in and it will learn your car and its charging system. The unit only supplies the voltage and amperage to the car. The car is actually the charger for it or has a charger built into it right in the line from the plug in for the charger cord to plug into.It is nice to have the car charged in a little over an hour.
