Battery Drain

My battery will slowly drain while car is not in use. I traced the batt drain to a fuse on the fuse panel labeld LID a 15 amp fuse. Does anyone have any idea what the LID fuse is. Our local chevy dealer maintenance department doesn't know.

I have a 94 firebird and the battery drains when I leave it in storage for the winter, so far my solution has been to just pull off a battery cable. I just figured that something maybe to do with the remote door unlockers is drawing a constant charge and over enough time would drain the battery

Battery drain over time is normal. Any vehicle with a computer, stereo system, or any electrical component in it that has a memory needs constant power to hold that memory. You need to disconnect the battery when it sits for long periods of time to avoid this.

well, only one thing to do. if its the problem, just disconnect the fuse!! foind out what doesnt work.if everyhthing works, hey..no prob :)

A-have no idea, I would assume the deck lid glove compratment, o rsomething.

B-Instead of disconnecting the battery while in storage, why not use a trickle charger? :dunno:
