Electrical problem diagnosis

<< < (2/2)

Evilgoat:
200ma sounds a little high to be honest, only things drawing current should be ECU battery backup (if it has one) Alarm and possibly radio, all should be in the <10ma range each. Some alarms in standby draw nanoamps.

Its not worryingly high but its enough to say, nail a battery in a few days. Pulle the feed to the battery off of the laternator and then see what happens.

morfis:
Thanks for the suggestions.

I had disconnected the radio as well (because there is nonstandard wiring to nokia car kit on the same feed). Alarm is standard disco fit.

Will try the alternator feed today.
