I've been finding my 2007 Mazda6 battery low in the mornings. This morning, with moderate temperatures, I had to jump it to start the engine.

I put a clamp ammeter on the battery cable and pulled every fuse one by one. Only the 10A "HAZARD" ("Turn signal lights") was drawing measurable current, and the ammeter indicated it was about 200mA. Is this normal? Or do I have a problem in that circuit?

The whole vehicle as measured with an ammeter at the battery should be less than 50mA
