power windows

in all of the other cars ive owned (even an older accord) i was be able to operate the power windows after turning the car off until i opened the door. in my civic as soon as i turn the car off i cant use the power windows. does anyone have any ideas on how i could wire my power windows to work like this?

Yeah! I never realize that feature until my aunt gave me a ride in her Odyssey.

On my dads '99 GMC truck & my moms '01 Monte Carlo SS, the power windows & the radio all work after you turn the car off & remove the key, up until you open the door, then it shuts off. But for the price of those vehicles (about $51,000 combined), you SHOULD get that.

I used to have an '89 Accord Lxi & once you turned the key off, none of the power accesories worked. I don't know how old his "older Accord" was though, but it didn't work on the '89 Accords.
