So the goose chase begins
I have been doing some electrical rework on my NADA wagon.
I replaced the alt belt and battery but still have a battery deaw issue. If I let the truck sit for more than a week the battery is dead.
I recently had issues with my blinker circuit and headlight circuit not having power on the hot leads.
I since hardwired in power and a use to these circuits and they work.
Now I am trying to hunt down the battery draw. (Perhaps the issue is all related)
Anyways I would imagine it is just a matter of getting the volt/am meter out and seeing what circuit is drawing power when it is not suppose to be..
Any guidance or typical first areas or circuits to test?
Thanks,
Tim
