Also leaving the car off the charger to see if she starts in the morning.

I ended up just pulling out the radio and checking. Draw was still there with the radio out of the car. I just left the amp unplugged, radio sounds fine to me without it

Driver side amp is my draw. Does anyone know for sure if it's the amp or can the radio be faulty and sending a signal to this amp to stay on?

Alright after checking again with the amps unplugged, truck closed, and waiting another 35 minutes I'm showing .00 on the meter. So I'm thinking it's safe to say its the amps causing my problem.

Update on my findings With the radio fuse in the car and everything connected I have a .13 - .14 A draw. With out the fuse in the car I have a .008 A draw. I have the radio fuse in right now and both rear amps unplugged and I still have a .14 A draw. I'm going to wait alittle bit just...

Also guys I still haven't done any more testing on mine yet. I'll post back up tomorrow afternoon when I get it narrowed down to radio or amps

Just to verify you are waiting for the GEM to shut back down after hooking up the meter? Takes about 45 minutes give or take.

Gotcha now, I'll test tonight when I get off work. Hopefully on the 10 amp she doesn't blow another meter fuse. I'll stop by radioshack again first to get another pack of fuses :rlaugh:

My meter does 10 amps, I'm just using 200ma setting. If the setting I'm using on the meter is causing my fuse problem then let me know, I don't use the thing often. How you describe hooking up the meter is how it's hooked up as I posted. Battery drain occurs in less than two days. Car...

Also the radio when it's off should not pull so much juice that 200ma is too little IMHO. If it's pulling even 1 amp when off it's jacked up

Testing with car off, no doors open. Can't get a true sitting draw reading with stuff open/on. Haven't really thought about testing alternator since as long as shes being driven shes fine.

The rest of the car is off when I put the radio fuse is in. Meter works fine without the fuse in, so I don't see how it can not be hooked up right. I got one lead on the cable and the other on the battery terminal. No idea what a shunt is. I have test leads, one clipped to the lead coming...

I'm thinking the head unit as well but I don't want to spend the money if I don't have to. If it is the head unit I'm going for an indash nav unit. I also understand the radio will pull a draw but shouldn't be so bad that it blows fuses in a meter.

Now if someone can help me on my drain. I tested first with the radio fuse pulled because I'm convince it's something in the mach 460 killing my battery. With that fuse pulled I believe I was having about a 8 ma draw if I was reading the meter right. When I put the fuse back in it blows my...

Selling my bullitt so I can buy another motorcycle. Car is all stock except for short throw and flowmaster exhaust. Has just below 111,000 miles. Does need new front tires and alignment for sure. Looking for 9,000 OBO Please PM me for pictures or any questions Also I had the a/c fixed...

The fuses for the ac looked fine but maybe I should replace them anyways. Just not sure

Well I just started the car since I haven't driven it in a few days and the ac works now I'm really confused. I turned the car off and back on and it seemed like the clutch wasn't going to engage so I switched to defrost and back over to ac and it worked. Now when I turned the car off it sounded...

Clutch was rattling is why they replaced it and I had them put a new coil in why they where in there. I'll check all this the next free chance I get

also I'm going to get a set of gauges. What should my readings be on the low side

Compressor doesn't engage when you short the high or low switch. I'll check for voltage at the compressor
