mystery battery drain
 

took my 84 500 sec in to the indy to figure out my mysterious battery drain problem.

found out the trunk light switch wasnt shutting off the trunk light.

duuuuuuuh. hope this helps someone else avoid feeling dumb.

Don't feel duh all by yourself...I once connected the trunk light connectors backwards, which kept it on all the time, even with the lid closed and the plunger full in (I was doing a lot of work on the antenna and sub woofer, didn't want to drain the battery!).
