    Anyone have a clue why this is?
    That fuse runs to the DLC, Accessory Power outlet (console), cigar lighter and to the Auxiliary Drop Connector. I think the Aux drop connector is in behind the glove compartment, check to see if someone has tapped into it for a power source? Do ya have a tuner's toy plugged into the dlc?

    You know what, I do. I have a one of those obd2 bluetooth scanners that I just leave plugged in. That must be what's drawing the extra .04 amps
