You know I mostly love my 06 HSE, but recently I've had a problem that I am just plain getting tired of. When ever the vehicle is off or even if the key is in the ignition, I can't turn the radio up past 19! It simply displays "low-power-mode" on the radio and you can't crank it up. What the heck? Sometimes I'm cleaning out the rig or stretching before a run and I can barely hear my tunes unless I turn the truck on (at which point I'm wasting precious fuel and inhaling exhaust) Is their anyway to disable this "low-power-mode"?
You would be opening a can of worms. The low power mode is enabled by the CAN bus. When the engine is off and key on, the audio head unit is constantly recieving that signal that the engine is not running. If you attempted to disrupt that signal, you can cause more problems with your LR3 than you could ever imagine.
