[QUOTE="Mustang5L5, post: 16940912, member: 38517"] Just adding onto this thread. Purchased a 2000 GT that was cheap because it kept killing batteries. Got it home and put my meter on the terminals and had a 0.36 amp draw. Pulled fuse 39 and it was gone. I went right to the mach 460 amps. Pulled the rear seat (convertible) and unplugged the amps one at a time. One of them being disconnected resulted in the current draw dropping to 150 milliamps. 150 milliamps is about what the GEM draws until it goes to sleep. So i set up my meter to attach it to the battery terminal and lead, and closed the door and walked away. 40 mins i came back and saw the GEM had gone to sleep and the current draw was now 20 milliamps. So it WAS the amp. Opened it up, and Resistor 807 and 808 were cooked. [ATTACH type="full"]1803702[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]1803703[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
