When to disconnect battery for Fuse pull test?
I did find a TSB that says that the computer might cause a draw only after it has been turned on and then off, so disconnecting the battery to set up the test gets rid of the draw if it’s that.
Is there a fuse pull test for parasitic drain?
I removed every fuse and everything plugged into the fuse box all at once and still the same draw. I unhooked the alternator, same draw. I unhooked the starter, same draw. I unplugged every relay under the hood and same draw. I don’t know anywhere else to look. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you. Mike
How long does a parasitic drain battery last?
I have a 4.7 amp parasitic draw. the battery goes dead in 2 days. I have replaced the starter, alternator, and battery. all are new. I did the draw test by pulling each fuse one at a time. no changes in the draw.
Is there a problem with the battery disconnect switch?
Tom, We too have a Monaco product, a 2007 HR Endeavor and just recently experienced the battery disconnect switch problems. The switch has been cutting out requiring a reset by turning switch back on. Battery seems to be fully charged.
When to disconnect battery with inPower lvd20?
InPower’s Model LVD20 Series Low Voltage Disconnects (LVD) automatically disconnects 12 volt loads from the battery when the battery voltage drops below a critical level, leaving enough charge for the vehicle to be restarted.
When does the battery disconnect switch turn on?
When positive voltage is applied to the control terminal, the disconnect switch turns on, applying battery voltage to its load output. When the disconnect switch is on, its controller monitors the battery voltage at its battery terminal. The LVD is installed between the battery and all loads.
What is the inPower low voltage disconnect switch?
InPower LVD20-100-SPC442 Low Voltage Disconnect Switch, 100A, 12V InPower’s Model LVD20 Series Low Voltage Disconnects (LVD) automatically disconnects 12 volt loads from the battery when the battery voltage drops below a critical level, leaving enough charge for the vehicle to be restarted.
How does a low voltage battery disconnect relay work?
This relay has a non-volatile memory, low battery alert system, and is thermal protected. The Heavy Duty Time Delay Bi-Stable Relay disconnects the battery from the vehicle electrical system with voltage self recognition.
What does TSB say about fuse pull test?
The TSB states that after you hook up your Ammeter and jumper wire between the battery post and terminal, switch the ignition on (DO NOT START) and then off again. Obviously you are not having this problem, but I thought it would be of interest and useful for you to know about.
Do you have a bed light, fuse pull test?
I am aware of possible current draws occurring with faults from either of these items (ie. a faulty seat motor and a power window motor that continues to run due to a faulty switch). Given the age of your truck you probably do not have either of these items fitted though but I thought I would throw this up in case. Do you have a bed light?
