MSD 6AL malfunctioning - again?? |
Subject: MSD 6AL malfunctioning - again?? by Dantana on 2009/5/22 4:50:25 Hi everyone, I have been installing anew sound system (will post pics shortly) and it's up and running fine. About 2 montsh ago my battery started to drain while the car was off. I have been getting a healthy spark when i attach the cables to the terminals. I initially thought that I knocked a wire loose because over the winter i lost my dsah lights. However, today I fired up the car to go for a ride (nice in chicago today) and it started idling very rough and dropped down to 500 RPM from about 900. I experienced these very same symptoms about a year ago and it was my MSD 6AL box causing the problem. I sent it back to MSD and they repaired it for me. Another thing I noticed is that my Ammeter has a constant 12V to it even though the ignition is turned to the off position. Does this sound like the same thing again (MSD)? It does to me, but last time I wasn't pulling current off the battery while the car was shut down. Could be responsible for my battery drain also? Thanks, Dan |
