[QUOTE="Cadillacmak, post: 20122, member: 11338"] My buddies 2004 Avalanche went into a death spiral last summer after one of his employees jump started it. No idea what took place but the radio, heater head unit, auto start (after market remote start) and the driver door controls all died. It also had a really bad parasitic draw that would kill the battery in about an hour. As I was replacing parts I pulled the radio out and it burned me, the side of that was HOT. Got everything fixed and the parasitic draw was gone. If you have a parasitic draw, might want to pull the factory radio out and see if its trying to identify as a toaster. [/QUOTE]
