Hi Eric, I do not know if this helps you any, but I have my Kenwood CD deck hooked up the way you described. After seating for 2 weeks I did not see any issues with the van starting.... well that is until my starter gave up the ghost 3 days later, but I had left the van parked like that with the memory and blinking LED alarm decoy for a good 3 weeks and had no issues. HTH, Tony
