what is the expected dram in a 06 vette when off

Asked by tincanner Jun 22, 2014 at 07:32 PM about the 2006 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

battery drains in a week, new battery was installed by the dealer. I have 350ma draw initially when car is shut off and then it drops to 250ma.

1 Answer

215

You definitely have a drain, you should be around 20ma with everything off. Any aftermarket acc (amp, power convertor etc) that are being left on? If not google "checking for battery draw" and you should be able to find step by step instructions on how to narrow it down.
