80ma battery drain

paulvasey · Jul 21, 2013

As previously reported I have an 80ma battery drain after the vehicle has gone to sleep, I have tested all the small blade fuses with a fuse buddy and I can find no drain issues after the 16 mins shut down. Any ideas where it could be going? Can it back drain out of the alternator if the diodes are faulty?

Headlamp wipers if fitted not parking correctly, final stage resistor, alternator diode failure, easy to check, just disconnect the alternator and see if the drain goes.

Deff not wipers or fsr so I'll try disconnecting the alternator and see how that goes

Mmm just had a look at the alternator , it's very inaccessible . Can I disconnect it anywhere else to check it for battery drain?
