Still in first week of ownership of 75 Eleganza II. My chassis battery is draining down and can't find the cause. I disconnected the positive cable that goes to the coach from the chassis battery and got zero drain on the multi-meter. Hooked it up and had a 7 amp pull on the battery. Went thru each light, fuse, switch and found a couple of them that were turned on with bad bulbs. Now I'm down to a 1.44 Amp pull on battery and have no idea where it's coming from. I went thru the schematic and owners manual. I'm down to fuse #7 that according to the manual controls front left light, bathroom fan, and I believe the galley light(don't have it infront of me at this moment) Anyhow I've gone thru every circuit and fuse and can't seem to find what the cause is. Common problem? Something I'm missing? Thanks for any advice.

Kelly G 75 Eleganza II Central Iowa
