    2005 2500 HD Silverado, my first ever LS Engine... My Dodge was Insurance totaled so I bought this Truck, to play with... Battery went dead, jump started and all kinds of foolishness happened.... New Battery and I am back in business, for now... One of the Key fobs stopped working overnight after re programming both of them last night... Very well done Video !!! Thanks

    Excellent. I'm dealing with some kind of parasitic draw in a '00 Ford Ranger and an '05 Silverado 1500HD. I can't bend anymore, so getting under the dash is a no-go, but at least I can pull some fuses and get a better understanding of what might be going on.

    I picked up a used 1993 C1500 with a draw issue. It's not my daily driver so I just installed a knife switch at the battery. And, the thing is on a trickle smart charger while it sits. I drove it this way for fifteen years occasionally attempting to trace down the draw. But, since I had a working solution, I didn't go at it the diagnosis full-on. I couldn't find any fused circuit pulling the juice.
    Then, while under the dash for some other work, I spied a relay someone had installed. Most likely for a trailer brake which I removed when initially acquiring the truck. Once the relay was removed, the draw was gone. Although, I still use the knife switch when the vehicle is not in use.
    Also since it sits, squirrels had done a mess to the wiring under the hood. Once I fixed the chewed-on wiring, I started keeping three rat traps under the hood. No return squirrel issues after a couple of sprung trap resets.

      It might NOT the BCM. It's the door switch not shutting the BCM down when you open the door after shutting the truck down. The door switches fail.

I know when I put that neg back on the cluster fk resets. Ya I got a new one prolly 5 years ago. I’ve just been leaving the neg off when I’m not drivin. Startin to be a pain tho. I still have to find the draw. I really haven’t had time to investigate.

    FIXED - found out the power draw on my 95’ Silverado was a 10a “radio battery” fuse located on the side of the dash right inside the door. I couldn’t hold the meter so I pulled 7 random fuses and after that the draw went down to 0.01. Replaced them 1 by 1 and kept going back to check with the multimeter on the battery. Sure enough the radio was drawing 0.82 Everytime.

    Have the same problem on my 2007 Chevy Silverado 1500LT. Had the truck sitting for a week without being started and the battery was completely drained when I attempted to start it. Didn't see any dome lights on or anything else on that may have killed the battery. Also, it's a brand new AC Delco battery, so it's definitely not a charging issue or the alternator as the battery does charge when the engine us running. Had to boost the battery with jumper cables connected to my 2021 Dodge Charger to get enough current into the Silverado to turn the engine over. I just ordered some alligator clip probes for my digital multimeter and will be pulling fuses this coming weekend to see which circuit is the culprit.

    Good video. I was wondering if the condition of the PCM was indicative of the car being in a flood? It appeared to have a lot of trash, i.e. small specks of trash that would have settled on the circuit card, but because the PCM had a lid on it, the larger trash accumulated mostly around the outside of the unit?

But when i turn it off the battery will be completely drained and cool to the touch. ive replaced this so far 2 yellow tops, 1 duralast, ac delco alternator, body control module, PCM, engine harness, ac delco starter, motor and body grounds, tail light and hitch control modules, fuel pump, evap canister, and even replaced 2 cluster that are known to be fixed. Im literally at a stump with it and i dont want to get pushed to having to sell the truck or switching over all my stuff to another body🤦🏻‍♂️ any help would be GREATLY appreciated 🙏🏼

    Hey man I know this is a few years old but I have a 99 Silverado that has a parasitic draw of about 1.5 milliamps I believe it was so I followed your video as and pulled the radio fuse and it dropped to .7 and then the radio amp fuse dropped it to .016 so I unhooked the radio and put the fuses back in and it still reads .016. I didn't do anything to the amp but regardless I hooked the battery back up and left radio out and fuses in and the next day the battery was dead. Tested again and still have .016. battery is brand new as the draw killed the old one. Will . 016ma drain the battery? I thought under .050 was good. I'm going to rerun the test tonight to make sure the battery wasn't already dead but I'm 99.9% sure it wasn't

    I'm learning, I have a question did you reinstall that fuse, before you started unplugging the BCM? Because the meter showed the draw again, so I would assume you put that fuse back in?

      yes. fuse was put back in to recreate the draw

    Hi. So I disconnected the negative battery post and the negative cable. Now, when i touch one electrode of my multimeter to the negative battery post and one electrode of my multimeter to the negative cable the reading it shows me is O.04 A. Is this ok? Or is it a parastic draw? Because whenever i check my battery voltage in the mornings it shows me 11.94 V.

      Anything under 50mA (0.05A) is not a parasitic draw. Anything over that definitely is.

    Say the module is expensive. what can you do to isolate whether the problem is the module or a load connected to the module? would powering the module with all its ground and powers on bench tester show the draw?

    It's hard to tell, but it looks like those solder pads connect to the capacitor on the other side. Electrtrolytic capacitors tend to fail after 15 to 20 years, so i would replace those two electrolytic capacitors.
