At my new employer, I've been handed a TL10 V2 that'll kill the battery in two days.
With all fuses in cab pulled, and the alternator removed, I measure 1.2 amp of draw. After 30 minutes, it'll drop to 0.8 amp.

Gonna go through the schematic tomorrow.

Just seeing if someone here has encountered this one.

Telematics (GPS) from Takeuchi was the draw source. But, there was a piggyback harness to an aftermarket GPS tracker.
So, I pulled the B+ & Ign from the Takeuchi GPS receiver's deutsch connector and shrink tubed them.
