Car is honda civic 8th gen FK2 europe version. Battery died over few days, found out that it had big parasitic power drain.
Started to pull off fuses and it was fuse #16, 15A, under a bonnet, about 0.40A. In manual its says its "back up" fuse. When fuse is out, central lock system and radio doesnt work.
When I tried to pull fuses from inside under the steering wheel, while fuse #16 was in, to maybe narrow it down, but nothing changed.
Disconnected each actuator, one by one, thought one was gone bad, found nothing.
Tried different key, thought it was sending constant signal to car, but it was not it.
Found out, that these civics have problem with bluetooth modules that can drain power, but my civic doesnt have bluetooth, navigation or hands-free system.
Dont know where to look next and no more information on internet.
