    Hi folks,

    I have been having some issues with dead batteries in the morning so I thought it was a good time to test for a parasitic leak. I tested all of my accesories and the wiring was OK. I then tested the winch and lo and behold I was getting almost a 2amp parasitic draw. How do I troubleshoot this at this point? The wiring is super simple so I am not sure what I should do. Is there a disconnect/switch that I can put inline to the battery? I am looking for a good/quick fix/

    Thanks
