Thoughts appreciated on this little issue I am having, realised following very dead batteries after just a week of standing:
I'm getting 0.45amp draw with ignition off. I pulled all fuses (and relays) one by one to see if I could find the circuit - but nothing. The winches and driving relays/solenoids where fully isolated to disprove them. Any additional wiring I have ever added goes through the 12v additional/supplementary wiring box near the OffSide Battery - again all fused and fuses pulled during checking.
So, with my non electrical brain I have a short to earth somewhere or there are items which remain live and are not part of the fuse box system. Im no electrical expert but I would have thought other than the radio memory there should be nothing live on shutoff for this motor? - 1992 HDJ80
Fuses checked: Main Fuse Box within engine compartment, supplementary wiring box on drivers side, fuses near to the right knee of the driver on the dashboard.
Any ideas?
