Slow power drain. If I leave the car parked for more then a two days it will be completely dead.
Took off the positive side of the battery and jumped the cable back to the battery with a test light (thanks Corey). Sure enough, the test light lite up to indicate a drain. Had the wife pull fuses until we found the one that shut the light off. It was the clock/cigerette lighter fuse.
Leave it out and sure enough no power drain. Today pulled the radio with the thought process that it is the radio clock...nope. Still draining. Pulled the wire for the cigerette lighter..nope. Still have the light on. Touched my test light around inside the cluster trying to find an active wire when the key is off...nothing.
Anyone else had this happen? Any recommendations?
Thanks.
