I have drained both of mine in the last 6 months. I found that the trunk light can drain the battery in 24 hours. The 3 trunk lights draw 2 amps. The battery is a 65 Amp-hour battery. If you slowly close the trunk, the lights do not go out. I have to slam the trunk lid. I'm going to look if there is an adjustment to the switch.
