Hi Simon,
Sounds at least fairly similar to mine! Rather than only going up every now and then, though, mine was at a pretty constant 100mA draw - after a bit of investigation at the weekend, unplugging the wiper motor does fix the problem, leaving me with a residual 50mA draw - something I guess is at least closer to being normal, if not quite there yet. I'm planning on spraying some contact cleaner on it when I get chance, to see if that solves the problem - hoping it's not a problem with the wiper motor itself!
