Battery Draw Down Test
Losing battery voltage over night.
I did a battery draw down test to try and find problem. When I connect my meter to the 2 negative contacts I get a clicking sound from the starter and it's reading a 100 amp draw. Is this clicking normal? TRD Relay? The Vette starts without any issues.
Thanks for the help.
