My cell phone barely uses 200mv, it would have to be charging for 6 months
without starting the truck before killing the battery. I use the truck
every day therefore it would never kill the battery. And that is the only
thing I use the power outlet for. I am just wondering if there is anyone
who has fixed this so they can use the outlet anytime, without the keys..
Thanks
