Parasitic draw. I'm going in.

The wiring on my 110 always looked an interesting proposition from the day I got it. Getting to grips with it has definitely been a 'job for another day" as it was all working well enough.

Unfortunately the day has come

Been standing for a week or so and both batteries were flat. And I mean flat. One was registering 2.8v and the other 5v. These are charged by separate alternator and only linked when needed via a whopping relay. Time to hunt the draw. In amongst this lot

At last count there were 7 fuse boxes and about 15 relays of one kind or another.

Not completely there but had some success. Biggest problem was a gps transmitter hiding in the back.

Still got about 50mA draw. I'll keep looking
