Hi Volks, A local van has come my way looking for help with a phantom power drain. Initially the radio was suspect, but even since it was removed the problem persisted. I took a look at it and the first thing I noticed was the digital clock was working, even with the ignition key out. The windshield wipers and the blower fans also work without the key in place. I pulled each fuse in turn and none of the fuses pulled singly would extinguish the clock and blower together. I also tried swapping the ignition switch with a brand new unit but that didn't help either. The van is a very early 1986 westy, built 10/85. It has square headlights and a 2.1 engine but no adjustable armrests.
