Re: Multiple batteries mysteriously dying?
wiring diagrams, which most cannot read because they have no training ,only identify what the wiring should be and not the fault. An auto elect can do the checks because they are trained and some diy's folks are also well informed and can read and interpret results.Many questions being asked betray a lack of basic knowledge and getting it checked- often free saves a hassle. Alarms are also not on the circuit diagrams. Incidentally I have not smoked for 30 years.

Glad to hear that
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

of course the diagrams can't identify the fault. they help in diagnosing the fault.
i know for a fact that the OP has had training in both read wiring diagrams and the use of a multimeter. actually, in the OP he has actually demonstrated that he was able to isolate the power drain to a particular circuit...
