Battery drain?


Recommended Posts

I read in a thread recently that the early power wedges draw power all the time. My battery goes dead after about 2 weeks. I haven't had a chance to mess with my multimeter to check the parasitic draw, but does anyone know what the fix for the power wedge was? I am planning on calling my dealership on Monday, but if someone knows what dealerships have been doing to fix this problem that would be great.

My dealer did an upgrade as a part of warranty - ordered the parts during winterization and we ended up doing the fix this spring. IIRC, they changed a wiring connection to correct the draw problem.
