Hi
In a rare move of cunning I left my light on the other day and killed the battery. Anyway, I got it jump started and then charged it overnight when I got home.
I tried to start it the other morning and it was dead. More charging and I got it to fire up and then checked the voltage on the alt. With neg connected to chassis and engine idling (300tdi) I got about 13.9 volts on two of the alt teminals and about 6.5 on the other (strange?).
When I charge the battery it seems to continually draw about 1 amp - still doing so after charging all night. I did not disconnect the battery before charging.
Since the battery is only about 3 months old I suspect that the problem is an electrical drain somewhere but I am not sure where to start looking. It is a disco by the way.
Any Ideas?
Cheers Stephen
