Battery thing getting annoying

I bought a cheap ($1.61!) voltage indicator to plug into the 12v port in the center console. Yes, it does stay on, for a while, but eventually that port turns off. No reading until I open the door, then it wakes up, and usually shows about 12v. I have seen 10.5v for a short time while cranking, and 14.3v or so at times while charging. I did the disconnect (thanks Unhinged) and solved my early problems.

Ah, so! Yes, the cigarette lighter socket behaves the same way; once the car is locked, it is off. Thanks; I learned something.

Just wait until you get to the dealer.. they will say they can't detect any problem and need to reproduce the problem before doing anything.

They probably tapped into the obdII to prep the car. Disconnect the battery for at least 10 seconds and the energy control module should reboot itself and solve the problem.
