Looking for Help. I have a parasitic draw. Will kill battery over night. Fuse 51. Description says. Under hood lamp, which I don't have. Data Link Connector, Radio, Cluster. I don't know where to go next. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Anyone know where I can find a wiring diagram? Thanks

Do you have the premium audio? If so does it have the radio with navigation and have you had any issues with it?

I had an intermittent problem where the radio would lose its mind and the amp would not get a signal it should turn off. If you have a factory amp I would look there first regardless of your head unit.

You can get the service manual here on this site. The 03 should work for you. Just search around in the pinned posts, I think that where I found the links.
