Parasitic Draw Issue - 2017 Hyundai Elantra (Avante AD) 1.6 GDI - 55k Miles - Battery dead after 2 days
Hi everyone,
I'm dealing with a battery drain issue on a 2017 Hyundai Elantra (Avante AD) 1.6 GDI. The car has 55,000 miles on it. If the vehicle sits for about 48 hours, the battery is completely discharged.
Here is what I’ve checked so far:
Battery & Alternator: Both have been tested; the alternator is charging at specification, and the battery is in good health.
Modifications: The car is completely stock with no aftermarket accessories.
Questions:
Are there any known TSBs (Technical Service Bulletins) or recalls regarding parasitic draw for this specific model and year?
With 55k miles, are there common failures in modules like the Smart Key sensors or BCM that prevent the CAN bus from sleeping?
Are there any specific fuses I should prioritize during a voltage drop test?
I'm a technician looking for any "usual suspects" or factory-documented issues before I start pulling every fuse.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated!
