Hey guys, hoping someone can help me figure out why this Summit I'm working on drains the battery when its not running. If you disconnect the battery cables of course the battery stays charged. But when you hook the cables up, a relay above the secondary clicks on. Doesn't matter if the kill switch is up or down. Or if the tether is plugged in or not. I am thinking that relay is not supposed to operate until the sled is running??? Or am I missing something? I assume the coil in the relay, after a few days runs the battery dead. Maybe I have the wrong relay or something?
I have read the shop manual but can't find an answer to my specific problem.
