I'm stumped. Alternator and voltage regulator tested and are fine, new battery last week, as well. Battery started dying overnight and at work. Through test light and pulling fuses, I have narrowed it down to fuse #21, which according to my Bentley Manual powers:
- Auto-charging flashlight
- Ignition key warning/seatbelt warning
- Interior lights
- Radio/antenna
- Trunk light
- Multifunction clock
- Service interval indicator
Individually, I disconnected the interior lights (glove box and courtesy lights), radio, trunk light, OBC......test light stayed on.
My SI lights stay on in the cluster when the car is OFF. From this thread below where a guy had the same problem as me (which i copied) it seems that the SI board may be sucking the power because the batteries went bad and the car is trying to charge them?

Edit: My power radio is removed from the car.
