Hi All, Just had a good look underneath my ZX300 TT (1992). Rust everywhere!! Can someone help with replacement panels etc'??? Any tips would be very much appreciated :confused: :o

Hi DaveMac big thanks for your help,following your addvise i have found a 10amp fuse that does drop the leak, all i have to do is try to find out where to go from here. will let you know. ps to DaveMac,Scoops and everybody else that has helped so far MANY THANKS!!!! :smash: :smash: :smash: :duffer: :duffer: :duffer:

Hi Scoops big thanks for your help, have checked voltages as you said and found them to be ok. then tried as you suggested and pulled fueses one by one and found a fuse in the right hand footwell, 10 amp fuse first on the left,bottom row which when removed dropped the leak to below .2amp will need to look at circuit drawings next, will let you know :duffer: :dance:

Thankyou for your input, very much appreciated. Would it be possible that my problem is being caused by a short in the alternator? again many thanks :confused:

Point taken Scoops, Your absolutely right! Will persevere, thanks!!! :headvswal

Thanks Steve. sounds like a nice piece of kit, will try and get one at the weekend. :cool:

Many thanks DaveMac, I will check it out, I hope you are right. I will let you know how I get on. fingers crossed :bow:

To everybody out there who took the time out to help, Big thanks though i am still trying to solve the proplem!!!

Thanks for the info,question, is there an easy way to disconnect the alternator? say a harness plug in the engine bay? with reference to pulling fuses i have narrowed it down to a fuse in the fuseable link box, it's a strange looking fuse with a loop of wire accross the top, i pull this and the drain disappears, any thoughts?

Thanks for the advice, once i figure out how to disconnect the alarm i will check it again. to answer your question about the amount of draw, it is 1 amp! also the battery does have just enough power to start if i use the car daily but if i leave it for 2 days it's flat

Thanks for taking the time to help, I have switched the alarm/imobiliser off but still the same voltage leak. as to the age of the battery i'm on my second new one so far

can anyone help please? not long had my 92 300zx tt and when i leave it in the garage for a few days the battery goes flat. i have put a metre accross the live side and found a 1 amp drain with nothing switched on. the only thing i can add is when i remove the looped fuse in fused link box the leak disappears.
