I have a relatively new battery in the car, and its been noticably discharging over night. I checked with my multi meter. Measured current from Positive battery cable to Positive terminal, and it was about 200 milli amps. I isolated it to the fuse 5. Tried unpluging the aftermarket radio first, and current went down to less than 10 milliamps.

Is this fairly common to have a short develop in a radio, its about 5 years old.

Im kinda relieved if it is the radio, saves a lot of other trouble shooting
