After owning Maple for almost a week she's surprised me good and bad.
Second time in 2 days she hasn't been able to hold charge in the battery even with a new one in it, alot of clicking coming from the fuse box even when the key is turned to ACC ON.
Can't sleep knowing she is in the drive-way dying D=
Hopefully today or tomorrow can check the charge from the alt or what ever is sucking power while the key is off :3

The second thing I'd check, is the alternator is not getting a feed back. Usually a good auto sparkie can check this for you and fit a diode inline if required.
She's got a hell of a imob-flash that's for sure, but that shouldn't be it.
When an Auto-sparky looks under that hood he's going to shake a head. Both from me, and the bloke who put the guts of it all in.
I'd be keen to know what it was, when you find out. The re-conned-starter went in not long ago.
Hope this message finds you with a healthy Maple!
Edit: New posts have been made since I typed all that, good work on tracking down the Alternator, that's a new one!
