After reading through the three pages, I think the OP (lion) has one of three things wrong: Either a defective 12V battery which can't hold a charge, or a problem with the charging hardware/software, or a problem similar to what voganni has been experiencing in which the current draw on the 12V battery either never dropped to the "dark" current level of a normal 125ma or for some reason jumped back up to a high current draw, 980ma that voganni has seen or possibly something higher.
I don't think the vehicle could have been left in auxiliary mode, as it will shut down after 1 hour. Shouldn't leave the 12V dead unless was bad low to start with or has way too high a "darK" current draw.
Can't have been left in Ready mode, as the DC-DC converter would have been active and kept the 12V charged. Sitting in the parking lot for 12 hours in Ready mode would only drop the high voltage battery maybe one, or two status of charge bar while just powering normal ready mode and the DC-DC converter. (assuming HVAC is off, much faster drain with AC in hot weather of about 1 bar per 1/2 hour, heat in cold weather could drop 2 bars or more per hour)
I don't think it could have been in On mode either. Although the DC-DC converter isn't initiailly active in On mode, the system does monitor the 12V battery voltage and periodically engage the DC-DC converter to recharge the 12V periodically. This isn't nearly as good as being in Ready mode from a standpoint of properly maintaining the 12V battery, but it should not leave it dead. But it will shorten the 12V battery life a lot if you do that a lot, which I did for the first two years of owning LEAF. 12V battery had to be replaced under warranty at no cost at two year battery test.
If I was the OP I would not trust the 12V battery. Need to monitor it carefully and monitor the "darK" current draw like voganni has been doing.
There have been lots of problems with 12V dead batteries in LEAFs. But Ingineer did report in this thread http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=10775&p=247882&hilit=12V#p247882" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; the following:

Let me clarify a few things: You can't accurately assess the SoC and health of a lead-acid battery solely by measuring voltage. There are many factors, such the exact chemistry variation, electrolyte stratification, plate sulfation, separator type, temperature, etc.
The Leaf has a proper temperature-compensated current-monitoring multi-stage charging system. The voltage will vary depending on many factors, but should be at least 13 volts anytime the Leaf is in READY mode (Green car icon on dash lit). If it is below 11 volts when the car is off, you have a problem. My 2011 is treating the battery properly in my opinion. Sounds like Oscar had a battery with a bad cell.
So on his 2011, he thinks the DC-DC 12V battery charging software is OK when in Ready mode.
But in Off mode the LEAF has experienced a lot of problems. The most significant when people leave the LEAF plugged in for lengthy times and the current drain is so high in that mode that the 12V battery can end up dead in just a few short days.
I wish lion and voganni the best of luck in getting to the bottom of their 12V battery drain problems. But Nissan service department saying you did something wrong (double pushed) is probably not correct. It is something wrong with one of the three things I noted at the top.
