Is there a way to shut off the engine without turning off music/radio/etc? Like when keys were a thing you could just turn to ACC position.
I just tried this, it works, thanks!Leave the shift lever in D (probably works in Reverse too, but never tried it) and press the stop engine button. Car will go into ACC mode and the audio won't be interrupted. After the engine stops, shift into P. Of course, keep your foot on the brake pedal while going through this procedure.

This^^^You are making this WAY too hard. This is covered somewhere. Maybe the owners manual. All you have to do is put it in PARK then hold in the shifter release button in and push the stop button. Engine shuts off and audio stays on in acc mode.

This works perfectly but the power doesn't stay on too long. And this is not covered in the owner's manual. I still don't understand why Mazda would be so stupid as not to include RAP in their cars, even though nearly every other manufacturer of modern vehicles does.
Retained Accessory Power (RAP) Power Mode. Retained accessory power (RAP) is a power mode that permits the operation of some accessories for up to 10 minutes after the ignition switch is turned OFF.
The manual for my 2020 GT says the ignition switches off automatically after about 25 minutes.This works perfectly but the power doesn't stay on too long. And this is not covered in the owner's manual.
My 2005 GMC Canyon has RAP. It lasts 20 minutes, or until a door is opened.This works perfectly but the power doesn't stay on too long. And this is not covered in the owner's manual.

Put the car in neutral [N] before turning the engine offIs there a way to shut off the engine without turning off music/radio/etc? Like when keys were a thing you could just turn to ACC position.
In case the other solution didn't make your radar screen:Put the car in neutral [N] before turning the engine off

Could be due to the potential electricity drain. For example, if you have the lights on, A/C running, seat ventilation on, radio blasting, USB ports being used, etc., that could all lead to a battery draining quickly, leading to a potential no-start, boost required situation.
What are you talking about Mike?
