Remove Your Negative Battery Cable. Make Sure Everything Is Off In The Car. Also Remove The Hood Light Bulb {the light that comes on when you raise the hood }. Connect A 12 Volt Meter, Or A Test Light ( Most Parts Houses Have These Around $8.00 } Between The Battery Negative Terminal And The Cable End. If The Light Comes On You Have Someting Using Voltage. You May Have A Grounded Wire Ect. You Will Have To Locate The Source Of This Until The Light Goes Out. When It Does, You Should Be OK. Note If Meter Don`t Show Voltage. Have Your Battery Tested Again.

Why is my 1997 ford expedition's battery getting drained when i get a jump it work but then dies again?

Your battery does not supply electrical power to the vehicle it simply stores it. The alternator is what recharges (replenishes) the power used during cranking. You need to have your charging system checked to verify the alternator is working and at the same time you need to have the battery diagnosed as draining your battery completely repeatedly can cause premature failure.

What would cause the battery to drain overnight on a 1991 Lexus ES250 if the car was off?

Often it's an alternator diode. Check the battery first. When batteries start to go bad they can often start to discharge over a couple hours. Take it to an auto parts retailer and have them test the battery and alternator for you. I had the same problem with my '92 Windom (ES 300). It was a faulty trunk mounted CD changer that was draining the battery.


What is draining your battery-Alternator starter and battery all ok?

You may have a short circuit somewhere that is leaking current to ground. Or you could have a bulb or accessory that is using current even when the vehicle is turned off. Improperly installed aftermarket stereos & amps are a notorious cause of this.

Battery light usually means alternator not charging. Most common solutions would be be a bad alternator, bad connection, or loose alternator belt. If the battery and alt test ok than check the connections to the alternator and battery.


Why is your car not starting and the battery keeps dying?

Possibly a bad alternator. The Alternator charges the battery when the vehicle is running. If the battery is not being charged this could cause the vehicle not to start.
