![]() Three month non-use should be possible.Ģ) Whenever the keyfob is used to unlock the car the current initially jumps to 11.7A (with headlights on) and then drops to about 4.5A after the headlights turn off after some 30s. This is very good as parking the vehicle for a long time (Airport Parking Lot) wonˋt be much of a problem as any lead acid battery has comparable self discharge rates. Hence, I decided to investigate the power management of the vehicle by inserting a Current meter between the negative Battery post and Chassis Ground connection and explored the current draw during the various operating states.ġ) When the vehicle is locked and at sleep, after a few minutes the battery current drops to 0.007A or 7mA. I bought recently a CX-30 and run into this reported behaviour. Should be able to leave the doors open and unlocked in my garage for long time before affecting battery. ![]() However I have to foot stomp with thanks Scotty73's detailed analysis/post (below) and agree that the design is flawed. Update - now that I set the door locks to automatically lock when I leave the car and ensure the key fob is greater than 23FT from the car, this problem is gone. The most miles will be driving it back and forth to the dealer as I have the wheel problem too and need the road force balancing to remove vibrations that occur from 50 MPHish (different thread I know). Perhaps a SW issue? And the recommendation to drive around 100 km doesn't work for me. I had not even driven the car or used it in accessory mode. Husband charged the battery to 100% (following the owners manual carefully). I thought the dealer must have had it in accessory mode too much before I bought it. I got the "Low Voltage Risk 12v Battery-Start Engine" within days of purchasing my new 2021 CX30 Premium Plus (White/black rims).
