Default Re: Battery Drain and Strange noise coming from BCM Area

So I tried it many times again and It took approx 1.75 minutes for the draw to drop down from 0.160 to 0.01, and then it stays there. Would this be normal and the siren was my only problem. Everything now is steady at 0.01 Ma. Thanks for your thoughts on this matter.
Another known draw on the battery is the stock radio. Do you still have the original radio?
If so, try pulling the fuses related to the radio and see if that draw goes away.
Pizzaguy has an excellent post on how to find a battery draw. It's in the troubleshooting section.
