Not normal, disconnect the alarm and see if that fixes it. 2023 P440e SE Dynamic on order -cancelled

Were those measurements with the alarm disconnected?

Yes completely disconnected and unplugged. Alarm connected or not at exactly 5 minutes after locking something wakes up and constantly draws 0.5 amps. Surprised the battery lasts 10 days but don't know the battery capacity.

Just a thought - you havenโt had a recent software update that coincided with problem? LR Assist told me they if an update doesnโt fully complete, you get a battery drain as it keeps trying to pull the new data down but repeatedly fails. Mine went completely flat eventually and needed to call them out. |

I had the same issue on my P440E, it was identified by Land Rover Assist as a faulty Battery Energy Control Module (BECM). Software update fixed the issue. The Mild hybrids likely have a similar module. RRS Autobiography P460E |

Thanks for your suggestions. It is booked in the dealership 5th June. I do hope it's as simple as a software update ๐ |

You could always call LR Assist when its flat and they can probably fix it at home? 2023 P440e SE Dynamic on order -cancelled

Would they update the software or just jump the battery to start it? |

In my case they jump started the car and then did a full fault code scan, identified the issue with the BECM and updated the software. RRS Autobiography P460E |

Thanks, I'll give it a try and let it go flat. May save a waste of a day going to the dealership ๐ |

They are very experienced at fault finding and will either fix it or let your dealer know what is necessary.

It didn't take long to go flat again, with security phoning today due to battery voltage. I phoned LR assist and this afternoon they updated most modules. It appears that both headlamp modules were the cause and not powering down. Time will tell, I'll report back in a few days if it's resolved. Thanks for the advice ๐ |
