anybuddy else run into this?
I don't drive my '06 very often (900 miles since February - GT convert). Even tho' it's parked in my attached garage, at first I would lock it up and set the alarm (has the optional active system with motion detectors, etc). The battery went completely dead after about 3 weeks, two times. So then I started locking it with a key (which sets the standard alarm, but not the "active" features). It hasn't gone completely dead, but you can tell the battery is low after a few weeks.
So now it's winter and it will be sitting for long periods and I'm afraid to set the alarm at all. In fact, took it for a drive yesterday
- it had been sitting only about 2 weeks and for the heck of it I put the charger on it after I had put on about 20 miles......and it was apparently a low as it charged at 6 to 4 amps for about 4 hours.
Anyone else run into this? Anyone know how much juice the alarm draws? btw, I run the "systems check" and it always sez everything is OK.
Thanks for any input.
