Re: Battery drain found but not solved

The voltage regulator for the interior blower fan is on a completely different fuse. ive already stopped the drain by removing the said fuses.

Re: Battery drain found but not solved

right, I'm once again going to disconnect everything in the loop and replace all fuses to see what happens.
if battery isn't draining then ill replace one by one to try again to sort the problem. cant think of what else to do.
