Drains Which Shut Off W/Battery Cable Disconnected

Check for current drains on the battery in excess of 50 milliamperes with all the electrical accessories off and the vehicle at rest. Current drains can be tested with the following procedure:
1. Insert the test leads in the input terminals.
2. Turn the switch to mA/A dc.
3. Disconnect the battery terminal and touch probes.
4. Isolate the circuit causing the current drain by pulling out one fuse after another while reading the display.
5. Current reading will drop when the fuse on the bad circuit is pulled.
6. Reinstall the fuse and test components (including connectors) of that circuit to find the defective component(s).
7. Without starting the engine, turn the ignition ON for a moment and then OFF. If applicable, wait one minute for the illuminated entry lamps to turn off.
8. Read the current from the multimeter.
