Electronic Drains Which Shut Off When the Battery Cable is Disconnected
- Repeat steps 1 through 5 of the Drain Testing with the voltmeter.
- Without starting the engine, turn the ignition switch (11572) ON for a moment and then off. If applicable, wait one minute for the illuminated entry lamps to turn off.
- Connect the voltmeter and read the voltage.
- The current reading (current drain) should be less than 0.05 amps. If it exceeds 0.05 amps after a few minutes, and if this drain did not show in previous tests, the drain is most likely caused by a malfunctioning electronic component. As in previous tests, remove the fuses in the interior fuse junction panel one at a time to locate the problem circuit.
