Or just swap the relay for a test

 

Yessir oldblue have tried that already. I’ve literally tried every logical thing except doing the drain test. I’ve been slacking on that and it’s a shame I think that’s going to narrow it down to a circuit that is casting my problems. I am confident it’s a voltage issue. The battery will drain to 12V within minutes of shutting car down. Either there is a short somewhere or something is not shutting down with the key off. I have some errands to run and I’ll be out there with the work lights and my meter testing this evening.

 

Okie dokie, let us know what you find

 

Well… I have 150 mA draw with the key out of ignition. Pulled every single fuse and no change. I’m going to hook trickle charge up to it as soon as I cut it off today and see if it’s just a battery voltage issue and if so I’ll just leave her running everywhere I go and hook to the charger at the end of every day. My charger will float the voltage at correct battery voltage without overcharging.

 

Did you pull the relays too?

 

Pulled fuses but didn’t pull any relays ? Both fuse boxes ?
And fyi. There are some relays on the backside of the BCM. Not accessible unless you pull the BCM.

 

Gearhead1 🤦‍♂️ no

 

My back was giving me fits after pulling all fuses from both fuse boxes. I guess I need to do the relays as well, I’ll get around to it in the next couple days

 

I didn’t pull any of the big maxi fuses either I guess I need to do that. Sorry I know it probably feels like to some that I’m not doing my due diligence but I just had spinal fusion surgery and my pain levels make it hard to think straight especially when I’m up doing something. I will do all that when I recover from last night.

 

I cant remember who mentioned relays (BCM believe) but if one those is stuck, that would do it. Could be any of them
