I’m hoping someone can assist. I have a 2004 SRT10 and apparently a parasitic draw. Here’s a brief overview…

Old battery would die if I didn’t drive the car at least weekly. Replaced it, still had challenges, so hooked up battery tender. Even with tender, got to the point I had to jump every time and replace it in just six months. Clearly I have a parasitic draw. Multimeter says draw is .117. I pulled IOD fuse and it was back down to .002. I found post where someone mentioned hood switch, so I disconnected. Still .117. I tried disconnecting trunk switch and same thing.

What else should I try? What else is tied to IOD fuse? I feel like this should be an easy fix where I don’t need to take it to a shop? And what’s the part number for the hood switch? I figure I’ll replace, but couldn’t find 2004 online.

Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!!

Do you have a service manual for the car that includes wiring schematic? This way you can see what's on that circuit.
