cliffcoggin Posted Tuesday at 03:57 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 03:57 PM How large is the overnight drain? A few dozen milliamps is normal. Have you any fitted any extra electrical equipment such as dashcam or satnav that may not be controlled by the ignition switch? If so, disconnect them and measure the drain again.

Danny fisher Posted Tuesday at 04:05 PM Author Share Posted Tuesday at 04:05 PM (edited) If I'm using my multimeter properly it was so sitting at 1.1 milliamps Edited Tuesday at 04:07 PM by Danny fisher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliffcoggin Posted Tuesday at 05:33 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 05:33 PM Danny. If that is a true reading, although it does seem very low, I suggest the battery is clapped out because of an internal fault. It would be wise to get it professionally tested before splashing out cash on a new battery and ensure you get it coded to the car. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnet Posted Tuesday at 05:42 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 05:42 PM Hello Danny, 1.1 mA just cannot be correct. A normal ‘drain’ when everything has shut down would be around 50mA. Kind regards, Gareth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
