Battery Drain! Not the HFL 🤬

I’ve had this issue for about a week doing a few different tests. I finally disconnected my hfl, but still no luck. The car won’t crank at all unless jumped. Any ideas? I’m thinking maybe trying the a/c clutch. Also my Navi stopped working about a week or so before this issue started. I just get the check disc message on my screen. Could the Navi disc drive in he trunk be the culprit?

Assuming your battery is new and fully charged, you might want to have a look-see at the positive battery cable/starter cable. Mine is a bit sketchy right now and I'll be replacing mine in the next week or two, the new part was only like $50 with shipping.

Update

Still battery still draining. I’m getting a ground somewhere on my positive connection. I took a look at the starter. But I can’t see anything wrong down there with the connection. What the hell!

remove all fuses and add them back one by one until your car wakes up dead with a fully charged battery
