  4. 2013 Ford Edge 10 Amp parasitic drain

    Update on this. Finally!

    Work has been a beast the last week.


    I was pulling a fuse at a time to see if I can find the culprit.

    I had my wife watching the Amp gauge by the battery.

    Turns out there is a click sound at the inside fuse box area like a relay when she closes the circuit with the meter. When I pulled fuse #18 the clicking stopped and the drain went down quite a bit.

    Here is what the fuse powers per the diagram.


    Third row power seats, Start button run indicator, Keypad illumination, Brake shift interlock, Powertrain control module wake-up, Anti-theft system.


    I did pull out the 2 small relays in the fuse box itself, but that didn't stop the clicking sound.

    Hello folks!

    New member here.

     

    I have a nasty battery drain when the ignition is off.

     

    I eliminated the Alternator by disconnecting the main cable.

    I used a thermal imaging device to see what was getting warm and I found a connector right beside the inside fuse box the was heating up.

    Its a light gray Molex type connector on the right side of the fuse box about half way up.

    When I disconnect the cable the parasitic drain stops. the ignition is non responsive also when its unplugged..

    Can anybody tell me what devices use that connection?

    Cant find a wiring diagram anywhere online.

     

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Disconnecting the battery when I shut it off is getting old!!!
