2005 997.1 battery is healthy. Current draw related to something connected to passenger seat. Drains the battery within a week. I have a standard seat, no memory settings. Two adjustment buttons only. When Fuse is pulled for the passenger seat there is no excess draw. Thoughts are a tracker perhaps? Before we go pulling up carpets, just wondering if anyone has had similar issues? Thank you!!

I gave this information in another post: "Battery drain Help"

Some 997 cars had this issue with a bad NAV module, this module is located under passenger seat.
In case of permanent current consumption, it's always hot.

I don't know if this module is connected on the passenger seat fuse ...

Very interesting. My wifes Mercedes E320 Diesel Sedan has a battery draw due to the passenger's seat Control Module failing. It is an inherent problem with the Mercedes E320 and I pulled the fuse to the passenger's seat until the new module arrives.
You may want to test pulling the fuse and checking the draw.
**Beware when you pull the fuse it disconnects the Airbag deployment function.
