Default Re: What is your H3 battery's key-off/parasitic drain?

My 2006 H3 initially begins at about 70mA with the BCM consuming 60mA it. After about 30 minutes, the BCM appears to drop from 60mA to 10mA leaving my total drain to about 20mA. This seems to be very normal.

i have about 60-70 mA with the alarm off. didnt measure to see if there would be a drop afterwards, maybe i'll measure today. havent got a drained battery yet so i guess its good. 20mA drain seems real good.

edit:
oh i forgot to ask, how do you know its the bcm and not something else changing, is there a way to check only bcm draw. thanks.
