5 amp draw in all conditions

My battery keeps dying. When I check with an ampmeter I see 5 amps being drawn on the battery lead that goes thru the fire wall. I removed all fuses and still see the load. Any ideas?

Re: 5 amp draw in all conditions

Some modules stay alive for up to 15 minutes, you need a surface amp tester, that lays on the wire to see the true draw, when the bat is disconnected the module can wake up and recycle, this may show false readings. disconnect the alternator also see what happens.

Re: 5 amp draw in all conditions

Did you pull the fuses on both the driver & passenger side?
