    What causes a High Battery Drain indicator on my BMW 530i
    I have a 2006 BMW 530i, overnight vehicle will indicate High Battery Drain on display. Battery is new, cannot locate any bad relays or shorts to ground. Vehicle always starts... even after not being driven for a week.
    What would cause this indication?

    Check for parasitic drain, such as presets, aftermarket stereo, security system, and glove box light. The maximum drain should not exceed 50ma.
