Yeah, I know how to test it, but not sure how to fix it if it's something major. I'm guessing it's typically more than a fuse causing the issue? Was going to have it looked at if it starts getting worse. Right now, I put a battery tender on each night and it is showing that it is capable of charging to the full extent so that's encouraging. Meaning, if there was a draw it would never reach the full charge on the Deltran charger (solid green light). Fingers crossed it was just a bad battery.

I too have this issue. It started with DSC errors while on the highway, then the time reset, my dash dimmer reset, more DSC and ABS errors. Then a random over charge error and now my comfort access wont work and as of 5 minutes ago my battery says its low.

Considering my car is only 2yrs old with 17K on it, Im starting to think my remote wire trigger might be the culprit. Im using the one behind the rear seat which doesnt exactly shut off the second the car is turned off.

Can we just get a yellow top battery in our cars?

when you pull the fuse that stops the draw, you'll know what piece of equipment has the issue.

anyways.. it probably would reach full charge. it doesn't happen overnight, in most cases. in my experience they do take a while to turn solid green, fully charged
