Hi,

the battery may not have contained enough juice to start the car directly after the test.. maybe, if you´d wait for half an hour, the battery might recover, and ´recharge´ itself... only a few 0.* volts.. but that just might be enough to crank the engine !

anyways... you´re right.. the system isn´t using that much power when in standby..
you can start the car with leaving the dome-light in the car all night, and I don´t thing a computer in standby modus will use more power than this dome-light.

greetz,
