Hi guys,
my '32 battery only seems to last about 4 days on the driveway if I don't drive it. The battery has been tested and is sound, the problem is I have at least a 100mA drain on the batt at all times, sometimes up to 200mA. That's WITHOUT the alarm on and it never used to do this.
I've recently installed a new sound system which is the obvious culprit, however removing the live feed for my install didn't drop the drain. I haven't yet tried removing the new (old) head unit though, so that maybe responsible.
Are there any obvious points on the 300 that fail and cause this?
What is the typical draw on a battery when the car is off? Presumably there is some.
Thanks v much
