I refuse to accept this as normal.
I storage, our DS4369 can’t survive more than a couple weeks without the chassis batteries being drained to the point of not being able to start our rig.
The Chassis disconnects are always OFF, but we don’t have it plugged in. There must be parasitic draw and I’m hoping we can have Newmar find it next week.
This question “could” be in the Spartan section, but I feel this may be a universal problem.
I’ve been told there are 3 sources that remain hot 24/7:
1. The step
2. The radio memory
3. The door locks
Again, I can’t accept this as normal and wondering if anyone had the same experience and fixed the culprit.
The only slight suspicion I have, is the step. Reason being, when it was new,My step went haywire when that area got wet by my pressure washing. It took disconnecting and drying before it stopped going crazy. I wonder if there’s a bad contact in the door?
The radio should be nominal.
The locks should be zero.
ready..GO!
