Check your owners manual for fuse functions. If you pull that fuse what stops working?

Mine was doing that, and it was a combo of older battery and the back hatch not catching completely, so the battery was being drained. The back hatch looked closed, but was off enough that it was draining the battery. So now I close it with both hands, and make sure it's well seated, which seems to have solved the problem. This was even tho I keep my overhead interior light off, just to reduce liklihood of that ever draining the battery.
