Monitered Load Relay Fuse Problem

Wife just bought a 2001 Mag Red Vert, out of warranty

Battery goes dead every two days. Bought new battery, same thing.

Mechanic traced draw to a Monitered Load Relay. It was drawing 1 amp. Relay was hot. He doesn't know if replacing the relay will take care of the problem. He removed the fuse, and the Vette ran fine.

So, what does a Monitered Load Relay do and if it's hot, is it bad?

Thanks,

Bob

In the fuse panel, mechanic pulled relay 37 and fuse 4. No more drain.

He's stump at this point.

Any ideas?

The MLR shuts off interior lights, etc after a certain period of time in case they were left on. Not sure if it's tied into the RAP (Retained Accessory Power) circuitry or not. Let us know what you see there Bill.
