At the moment the way things are being stolen, you may be on a winner there, but in reality you need to connect an ammeter in line and see if you can track down the drain, once in line, start removing fuses to see if the drain stops, short term cure, fit a battery isolator switch :wink:

Not every problem can be solved with duct tape, and it's exactly for those situations we have WD 40

Hi,
The alarm could be "staying awake" and flattening the battery, if it just happens when parked in one particular place, say, at home. It was a recognised problem with the p38a, being caused by stray radio signals from wireless equipment near by, like those weather station things that have a wireless temp sender. I think there is an upgrade.
Other than that I dunno :?
