Hello all, I am a German electric Engineer. I am driving a Astro Van 2003. Since a few months I have after 2.weeks a dead Battery, when I don´t drive the van. So I made a deep "dive".
I found out when the car is looked, I have 220mA discharge this is to high, normal is between 20mA and 70mA! Causing this problem I found out. There are at the driverside next to the OBD connecter where you hook up your diagnose tool a holder. On this holder there a two black "boxes" One box is facing to the fire wall (engine side) and one to the driver seat. In each box a four relays installed. Now my issue. In the black box (facing to the driver seat) the left relay have on the coil (85-86) always power.Next to this relay 2.relay is only working with the first one and operating all the interior lights. But all interior lights going on and of like there should. The 2. relay wish operating the interior lights is only working, when the 1. relay is installed!
Now can someone tell me, how the first relay one the left side is "operatet" Or were I can get a circuit diagram. On the internet I found just noting.
Thanks Rowindi.

Guten Tag,
I thought at first too. The I disconnect the light sensor on the dash and the connecter where you switch on the head lights, no changes!
Would be great, if you could find out, for which function this relay is responsible.
Thanks Rowindi
