[QUOTE="Gilaguy23, post: 438034, member: 19498"] You need to get a DVM and start checking what's draining power by removing one fuse at a time. Some of the fuses will have power when the key is off and out, that's normal. Id also be careful with dielectric silicone on fuses and anywhere dirt will gather. Clean and snug is better than loose and goobered up with that stuff as its like a dirt magnet. The gauge thing is not normal also. Word of advice grounds can wreak all kinds of issues on electrical. Check everyone you can find, clean them to bare metal and snug them up good. [/QUOTE]
