Yes, there have been many people with the Mopar harness chiming in on the Jeep forums with the battery drain issue.
We've devised an easy test to check to see if your Jeep is awake (and drawing current). Before exiting your Jeep, roll down the driver's side window, get out and shut the door. After 3-5 minutes, you can reach in through the open window and press the brake pedal with a broomstick handle. If the rear brake lights do not illuminate, the Jeep is asleep.
If you want to verify the problem that I have described, wait until the next time you have your Jeep connected to the motorhome. Connect it as you usually would. Once it is all connected, perform the broomstick test. The rear brake lights will not illuminate. Now, operate one of the turn signals in the coach (which will invoke the Jeep's turn signal). Right after you do this, repeat the broomstick test. The Jeep's brake lights will illuminate indicating that the Jeep is now awake.
