    Hi Bob! Welcome, you're new here aren't you :D Welcome...

    Based on your profile you have a 2005 correct? How old is your battery? How long does it take to discharge? Whats turned on? Do you have a Television perhaps, or things plugged in - like phone chargers?

    One thing to try -- charge the battery --- then disconnect it --- there is a red switch you can disconnect the battety through. Does it discharge while it is disconnected?

    On a 2005 there will be no red switch unless it's been upgraded at some point. You'll have to remove the battery access panel under the galley counter to take one of your battery cables off.

    That’s what we did on our 2010 model.

    The battery is new. Ii discharges in about 2 days. I have unpluged everything . I have followed the prints in the manual. Question?
    There is a 3 amp fuse from the input that may be hooked wrong,
    one end is to a black plate, the other was unhooked , not sure where to put that. any suggestions.

    Another possible gotcha --- do you ahve dimmable cabin lights? Make sure they are off --- not just low, so low you may not even get light off of them. This is something Cary warned us about during our orientation ....
