Subject:      New radio= dead battery?
Content-Type: text/plain

Hey All,

I have a question: Why is my new radio always "lit up" even when turned off and ignition is off also? And after 2wks (from installation of radio), now my battery is dead, even though I started it several times including for 10minutes the day it "died"?

So if the radio maybe drained my battery-Why does my radio still work and have power, even this morning?!?

I am a newbie and looking @ my Bentley guide, but why doesn't it show 1985 wiring? Do I just look at the 1983 wiring on 97.20/97.21?? (I obviously didn't do the install - I paid the previous owner to do it and he had done several but is on the road to Grandcanyon as we speak to ask him)

It is a 1985 Westy vanagon GL 1.9

Thanks, Sarah in Tx 1985 Westy vanagon GL 1.9 "Lennon" Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry
