My neighbor has a 2007 Bounder that has a drain on the starting battery. He recently replaced what he thought was a bad battery with a new 1000 cca battery.After sitting less then a month it was stone dead. I checked it and found it has a 300Ma phantom drain on this starting battery.On our GMC's we should have almost no phantom loads (maybe 10 Ma)Is this normal for newer motor homes with all the electronics they have? I can't imagine trying to trace out that bugger with no wiring diagrams ! I told him to leave it plugged in or unhook the battery. Stuff like this makes me like my GMC all the more.
