The drain is as bad to kill the battery overnight during winter so it is really NOT normal.

When it goes to sleep the number is at .04 amps so its normal, but it takes a lot longer to get there (system seems to keep resetting itself around 15 mins and restart the sleep process by going to .95 amps first for a minute, then .5 amps for another 15 mins).

I will start pulling fuses next to see if it helps although I did try some without success during last winter.

Thanks for all the help..

Have you tried unplugging your TCU? That's another known problem that will drain a battery over night.
