recently went through a total of three battery’s and two alternators (now I’m sure they’re not the problem). New cable going to the starter to the battery, new stock ford terminals, fuseable link is okay, went brought the fuse box there’s no blown fuse.
When it sits for around ten hours (my whole work shift or when I’m off at 7pm till I’m getting ready for work the next morning 8am) it’s dead. When I jump it or if nobody’s around hook the battery charger to the battery it turns on.
Nothing is being left on I’m absolutely sure (as far as visible lights) no doors open nothing .
Has anyone had a parasitic draw issue and how did they solve it ?
- I conducted the draw test but I’m almost sure I did it wrong , is there an easier way?
-what else should I look at , anything that could potentially be draining the battery?
