I have found out that I have a key off battery drain. I found out the .40 amp drain is coming from fuse 25 which is the GEM module.
I pulled the plug for the wires going out of the GEM and I still had the .40 draw. I then pulled the power in plug to the GEM and the drain was gone.
The funny thing is when I first put the tester between the neg terminal and the neg post I will get a reading of .01 amps for the first three seconds and then I will hear a click coming from the GEM module area and the voltage draw shoots up to .40 every time. Does anyone know why it's doing this and what the click noise is?
