Hi there,
First of all, I'd like to thank you all for this brilliant forum. I've been reading it a lot and have to say it's been useful plenty of times.
Now to my problem : I've had on my 2001 automatic 3200 an electric leak for about 6 months now. It causes the battery to deplete in about 4 days if I do not use it.
I've measured the current flowing out of the battery when the car is closed and everything switched off (including all the lights), and the result is about 0.50A.
I've found that when I remove the fuse number 17 (on the panel which is below the passenger's feet) the current drops to 0.20A. My local Maserati mechanic told me this was the normal value to get on that car.
In the owner's manual is written that the fuse 17 feeds the "sound system, multifunctional indicator on central panel and Bridge Can control unit".
I've tried to disconnect the car radio but this has no effect on the current.
Do you have any idea how I could check which one of the multifunctional indicator or the Bridge can control unit is the faulty one? Or any other hints?
Thanks for your help!
