Ok...off to the dealer yet again. Batteries dying left and right now if I let the H2 sit for longer than two days.
So the dealer now says it was my Pioneer XM receiver drawing 3amps. It woke up a series of power modules 16 times over night. I have it hooked up to one of the aux power outlets in the front console. The say the XM tuner draws a small amt of power to stay updated (I verified this w/ Pioneer) but it woke up other modules totaling the 3amps. They said I might want to try moving the XM receiver to a pure battery connection to prevent waking up modules.
Does this sound reasonable??
Klaus, maybe you can confirm this reasoning?
I'm going to leave my XM unpowered for now. If the battery dies again there will be hell to pay. If not, I guess I'll just pull a (+) wire from the fuse block.
