....unplugging the light switch.
: If you have a draw even with everything off the headlight switch could still be the problem, as it has power all the time. You can't access it from the bottom, you must take the instrument cluster out (and it helps to loosen the heater controls). There is a button on the switch, press it to release the knob. Then take the bezel off, unplug it and it is out. When putting it back, be very careful to not crossthread, it is easy to do and the bezel is just potmetal and will break.-CP
: : Ok , after looking at the diagram I think it is the number 37 wire from the starter relay (splits off to 25) the 25 wire goes to the headlight switch.But something comfuses me, when this happens the car starts up and runs fine, yet if everything is off it still draws current?Is it a possibility that it is shorting , but still having enough resistance in the shorted connection to allow the other components to operate (coil, alt. , starter) (current flows in path of least resistance).Sorry , I just don't get it.
