What he said.

Also, you can isolate the drain by removing fuses one by one. Once you find the fuse that stops the drain, the fault is in that circuit.

But surly, a 2002 model year vehicle should NOT be exhibiting these electrical problems, and should be under warranty anyway.

It sounds like you have a bad connection between battery negative and chassis.

I allways thought so too.what I meant was the ground cable from battery and not connected to van and using a volt meter with plus to chassis and minus on grd cable and getting 11 volts.Where am I getting volts from??.
Thanks

What is the difference between Ground and Chassis? Aren't they the same?
