I started with the fuses, pulling them one at a time and reading for any difference on the meter. Started with a reading of 300.3 milliamps. WOAH. nothing made a difference of more than 1 milliamps. ended with all fuses out. and it dropped to 288. then disconnected the altenator. no change. then i removed the acc servo harness, and bingo....only 1-2 milliamps reading now. wow, should that thing even pull that much? and not protected by any fuses. i removed it last week to bypass it so i could have full heat, and noticed it had a cracked body as well. i kinda knew this since i had a small leak over there, and when flushing the system, it was more pronounced. also found that my aux water pump was siezed. i reconnected the vaccum lines and power harness to the servo and placed it back, with no water lines running through it though. would it be safe just to remove the servo completely? and leave the vacuum lines/block and power harness laying over there?
