Hi caddyshack

Yeah I did think it could be alarm / immobiliser, no idea how to test this though as my electrical skills are pretty poor will try and do a bit of research.



Hi Marty, sounds like something needs fixing then.

I had ignition off and doors all closed, not sure about relay, how long would this take and how would I know it had opened? I would guess it would have been at least 1 minute from turning engine off and shutting doors before testing.

Before testing the cables as stated in my last post, I first took each fuse out of the main fuse box under the bonnet one by one and tested the amp draw and it didn't change.

I take it after doing these steps it becomes a bit more complicated, I don't suppose you know of any likely culprits for a battery drain or could it be pretty much anything? Presumably by doing fuse test I can eliminate lights, wipers, heated screen etc...
