My battery has gone dead a couple of times, so Im trying to track a drain.

I'm using a multimeter set up in line on the negative battery terminal.

It shows 66 milliamp draw, I think. See picture.

When I pull the access.2 10 amp fuse, it drops to 24.7.

Is this something that would drain a battery over 3 or 4 weeks of sitting?

Yes, 66 mA is a bit much. Need to put a volt meter across all the fuses and see what's pulling.
