T6.1 bult-in 300W inverter LED

[cholo]

Hi,
I recently noticed that the leisure battery in my Cali Beach T6.1 drains much faster when the car is parked in the garage. After just a week, it's practically flat.
I checked the current drawn from the auxiliary battery at rest, and it was almost 0.4 A.
I figured out that the stock 240V 300W inverter in the seat is drawing this current, even though nothing is plugged in.
The LED on the inverter stays green constantly, but when I plug in the power cord, it sometimes goes out for a moment, and the current drops to less than 100 mA.
My question is: should the inverter LED normally go out when nothing is plugged in?

Best regards,
cholo

The LED should be OFF when nothing is plugged in.
Green when something plugged in and Inverter is On.
Red if inverter is faulty when something plugged in.
There is a microswitch that is switched by inserting a plug, to switch inverter On and the green LED. This can stick On.

Confirming on my 6.1 Beach Green light off when nothing plugged in.

As others have commented, your inverter is powered on when green, so perhaps try a plug insert and wiggle, then forcibly remove to try to disengage the micro switch. You'll know when successful by the light going out after plug removal.

Good luck - please report back your findings.
