I checked for parasitic drain on the battery (8 months old) in my 2006 Ram 1500 because of the voltage drop it had after sitting for a few days. Turns out that the the problem was related to the number 11, 20 amp fuse thats for the radio and under the hood light. I checked to make sure the radio was off then went to the hood and opened it. There was no under the hood light, so i checked the plug where the wiring for the light connected. There was a modest amount of corrosion on and in the connector so I blasted it with some contact cleaner. Still had the drain so....if I cut the 2 wires that are connected to the connector and
remove it and tape the ends of them separately, would that stop the drain on the battery? or should i connect them together to stop the drain?
Thanks
