Greetings,

I'm a brand new member casting about for some help with my Suby. It is a 2006 Outback with 112,000 or so miles. I LOVE this car! Anyway, several days ago I found a dead battery so I charged it and the next day, dead again. (BTW, the battery is a DieHard 18 months old.) Today I removed the neg battery cable and found a current drain in excess of 2 amps!!! with everything turned off. Duh, I wonder why it went dead? Anyway, I removed every one of the fuses in the cabin and engine compartment and never saw a drop in the staggering current drain. I'm at a loss as to the next steps. Would an OBD2 scanner shed any light on the trouble? I've been a shade tree mechanic all my life but at 81, I'm slowing down. I would be most appreciative of ANY suggestions of what to do next!

Thanks in advance for your help!

David

I had my battery killed by a hardwired dashcam, forgot it came by default motion sensing recording enabled and no timeout.
