I'm trying to diagnose a battery drain issue on my mother-in-law's car. Battery is fully charged. I connect the ammeter up and after a few minutes it settles at 120mA. That seems high to me. I pull the fuse labeled ECU-B and it drops to 22mA. I pull the fuse labeled AM2 and it drops to 11mA. I can't seem to get rid of that last 11mA regardless of which fuse I pull, but I'm not really concerned about 11mA.
So I've read that GENERALLY you have a problem if you're over 50mA. Seems I do with whatever is behind that ECU-B. But before I go any further I just wanted to verify with someone that a 100mA draw from ECU-B is abnormal.
So, questions:
1. Is a 120mA draw considered too high on a 2016 Corolla? (100mA on the ECU-B)
2. If so, what is the ECU-B? How do I fix this?
Thanks everyone!
P.S. One other thing. Thinking it might sense the keyfob in my pocket, I took it to another part of the house, far away.
