Something is draining the battery, but when I shut off the
car and put the amp clamp on, I only have .1amp....I figure
that is about normal for a radio memory, but in the morning
the battery is dead. I disconnected the battery last night, reconnected
this morning, all was good, the car started right up.


Am I missing something here?

Find that 0.1 amps by selectively pulling fuses. A friend's new Subaru will drain the battery in 4-5 days so much that it will not start. The drain was about the same (0.1 amps) on a 50 percent duty cycle for the alarm. It appeared to be a design flaw. Dealer had no answer.
