Battery drains in two days if not driven. have isolated the drain to the 50 amp fuse in box under hood. relays associated with that fuse do not effect drain. One curious note, when I press the brake the dash illumination lights come on, if I pull that fuse they only come on when they are supposed to. With the 50 amp fuse pulled the headlights do not work and the shifter will not move out of park, all other lights work
A 50 AMP fuse is a main power fuse. This is not "isolated" that thing probably feeds 5 or more other circuits. You need to get the power distribution diagrams and narrow it down further by pulling the fuses (NOT RELAYS) that are fed by that fuse. Once you have it narrowed down to a single (small) fuse, then you narrow it further by checking the circuits that are fed by that fuse. You must check everything that is fed by the small fuse. The easiest way is using the power distribution diagrams to unplug all of the components (one at a time) that are powered by that fuse. Sometimes you can eliminate two or three components at a time by disconnecting a single, common connector.
Testimonial: "previous owner installed alarm system, caused problems with the brake, park and dash light circuits thanks, Jeff"
