My battery was dieing after one week. So I put a brand new one on and after one week it was fine. Went to the car today, two weeks, and its flat as fook!!!!

 

I have a tracker and alarm on the car but they dont suck too much juice do they?

 

Is there anything else that would suck it??

 

I have no siren on my alarm as it broke, so the alarm could be going off, but i've never noticed the indicators going (i go in the garage daily)

I have the same problem and never sourced the drain.

Disconnect the positive lead on the battery and put an ammeter in series between the positive terminal and the positive lead. (dont exeed the current rating of the ammeter by turning anything on).

 

Now one by one remove the fuses to find out what circuit is draining the power.

Good Idea!!

i had this prob it was the boot light when shutting it does'nt always switch the light off

parasitic drain is great, the fuse way of finding it is good as long as it is a circuit fused in the box

Same here turned out the boot light was constantly on.

Well it was a waste of a new battery, lol. Thought they old one was crap, this new one has lasted longer but theres still a problem!

i have the same problem i have been thru 2 battries and im on my 3rd one i have had my z for 3 years, the problem just started 2 years ago tho! autobeast i have an ammeter how do i test it? what setting do i have to put it on? and how do i know if somthing is draining power?? tnx
