xorigamixartstx Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 When the battery is left connected my 300tdi drains the battery in a couple of days. I disconnected the alternator and the drain drops from 0.34 to 0.02 amps. I replaced the alternator with a brand new one connected it all back up and the drain is back up to 0.34. Does anyone have any idea what the problem is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lincsoldbird Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 The drain with the alternator connectered should be 0.02 amps so check the new alternator. No way should it be 0.34 amps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 ^ I agree. Also check for chafes in the alternator harness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
