[QUOTE="DT Knives, post: 1048977, member: 76332"] 2005 Sport Trac runs fine but when in park, turn key off an take out, the ABS, Check Engine and "check gauges" light comes on and the radio doesn't turn off. This drains the battery. Here's what I've checked: 1. Checked the battery and alternator. they are both good and charging. 2. Test light and pulled and checked all fuses. Inside and in engine bay. Fuse #25 pulled and all lights and gauges go off except the ABS which stays on. Still a draw on the battery. 3. Replaced ignition switch. No effect problem still there. 4. Checked for loose positive and ground wires. None found 5. When running everything works fine. 6. Scanned, there are NO codes. This is how it looks when the key is out. There is a draw on the battery and power windows work. Radio does too [img]https://i.imgur.com/Uf8fV6L.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
