Battery Getting Drained
My 100s battery is continualy draining itself. I can't seem to find what is causing it. I have recently put a brand new battery in 3 weeks ago and one day it was completely drained. This has been ongoing for 6 months. Has anyone seen this happen before. Thanks

I have no idea, but you should probably start with the #30 post here:

This is where there is ALWAYS battery power, not just when the ignition is switched on.
Then go <a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a6100/msgs/42161.phtml">here</a> for more electrical panels and relays, etc. See if you can hear any clicking coming from the relays.
Find out if things like the windows still open after the key is out.
*Note*: the windows will work for about a minute (maybe less) after the key has been removed from the "run" position.
