Koso Rx2n - Battery Drain
Has anyone else had a battery drain caused by the KOSO RX2N Digi Dash?
I tracked my battery drain down to the positive feed to my dash, it appears to be consuming 11 amps when the iginition is off. I measure this with the ampmeter connected in series between the battery postive terminal and loom. Seems a lot of power to run just the clock?

Just reviewed the settings on the multimeter I borrowed, looks like I was measuring the voltage, woops! 11 V. I will have to re-check the miliamps next weekend, however, its still seems to drain the battery. Pulled the fuse for a temporary measure and recharging the battery to see if it solves the problem.

I have the same dash not had a problem with battery drain. The car has a battery isolator but the main pos wire to the dash is constantly live through a fuse to keep the clock from constantly resetting, the car has been stood from last summer, and started fine last week and the battery is only a small one off a fiesta
