So the issue is the battery goes dead overnight after spending a few hours on the charger.
I placed a current meter in series with the negative side of battery to measure the current draw with the key off. I am getting 0.170 amps consistently. When the key is turned ON, but not cranking it jumps to 1.6 amps. I am trying to get an idea of what is a normal current draw with the key off, to see if I do have a drain on the battery. Can anyone tell me what your car draws in current from the battery when the key is off?
If 0.170 amps is high, then what is a good approach of finding the issue? Do I start unplugging the wiring harness until the current drops or what? Thanks
