Battery drain 2009 chevy shortie
Hi all!
I’ve got a 5 window 2009 Chevy (3500 van body) shortie, and it’s experiencing pretty fast battery drain as I work on it in my driveway. Because it’s a tight fit, I almost always enter through the rear door or passenger entrance. I know that you need to close the drivers door after using the headlights- otherwise the dash & dome light stays on.
The bus was previously used for 2 years transporting cast and crew during Covid for movies. It sat in a lot and was unused for weeks at a time. Started right up- when I checked it out (I was able to look at it a few times at my leisure over a month- owner was not secretly charging the battery)
Currently I’m experiencing a drain with no apparent lights turning on as I work on the bus. My best guess is that it’s connected to having either the rear door or passenger swing door open. But with no apparent lights turning on, I can’t figure out what would be causing the drain. My googling hasn’t found anything and I’m at a loss. Any thoughts?
P.S. I also have a zonar fleet management system and. a check-mate student safety thingie. Both appear to be disabled. Figured I’d mention everything I could think of.
