I drive a 1995 Saab 900 S Convertible and if I leave my light switch in the parking light position it will drain my battery with the key out.
I learned this hard lesson early on in my ownership of the car and I have never used my parking lights since as a precaution.
I guess Saab has continued this idiosyncracy with the 9-3 Sport Sedan for some strange reason. I'd love to know the reason for this "functionality", anyone know why this happens?
