Hi all,
Got myself a 94 Disco 1 V8 with a few issues, first of which is a parasitic power draw. It drains batteries flat in about 24 hours. Doing a power draw test and pulling fuses etc has determined it seems to be something related to the MFU - Multifunction unit.
This car has been semi-butchered in its life, and no longer has remote locking/central locking, and I don't believe it has an immobiliser either. (No key symbol on dash, keys are solid plastic moulded, no electronics etc), I also think the alarm is gone. It's a Japanese import, if that makes any difference.
Any ideas of where to start with this? I know that's a super vague question considering the above electrical bodgery that's went on over the years but would be interested to hear if anyone has had a similar experience.
