Subject: Re: Alternator drain? by Matatk on 2009/2/10 3:23:04 Do you mean they are dying while you are driving, or while the car is sitting overnight? If while driving it could be an alternator or bad grounds. If while sitting over night or over a period of time you could have a parasitic drain (ie light staying on or some other type of electrical device drawing power from the battery). You can test for this by installing a voltmeter between the battery and cable and then pulling fuses (with car off) and seeing where there is a jump for your power drain. This will help you narrow down the circuit that is drawing power. Your battery itself could also be bad. New/old? Have you had it tested? Matthew |
