Parasitic battery drain SolvedSolved

Chevrolet Suburban 2005 Suburban 2500 LT 300000 miles
Battery drains overnight when car turned off. New battery and alternator charging fine. Can a stuck blend door actuator cause the drain ?

Best answer (according to Parasitic battery drain)
Parasitic battery drain from United States a month ago
I put an ammeter in series with negative post on battery and ground lead to engine. I selectively pulled fuses one at a time to see if there was a change in current draw. Then replaced that fuse and went to the next and on and continued until a fuse caused current draw to go to zero. That fuse was labeled INFO. Evidently it powered the system that operated OnStar and Carphone features in this 2005 vehicle. Those features were outdated and no longer functioned but their system remained powered. Removing the fuse permanently stopped the parasitic draw and did not change anything in the vehicle as those systems no longer functioned anyway.

I recommend checking your grounding. I had a grounding issue on my 2004 Suburban.
