Every morning when I go to start my car the battery is dead. I've tested the battery and alternator and both are good. If I unplug my room lamp fuse my battery stays charged. The lights aren't stayin on over night. I read the tech article about it and norrowed it down to that fuse as the one draining my battery. I'd go without the interior lights, but when I unplug that fuse I have no radio, pw, pl, blower fan, and pretty much everything else in the interior.

If there is anyway I can rig the electrical system so that I can keep that fuse unplugged but still have interior power let me know.

Any help is appreciated
 
Do the rest of the trace and find out what's being left on. Is it an aftermarket radio? Have they crossed the power and memory wires? Is your trunk light staying on? Something's not turning off as it should, but at least you seem to have found out what circuit it's in. Now the fun starts.
 
your factory amp might be bad and its drianing your battery
it did it in my brother 97 gsx
unplug the factory amp under the passenger seat
and see if that it
