somewhere in your electrical system for the brakes is a switch or relay with a short in ,it
find which one it is , replace it and the problem will go away
A short will not drain the battery it will blow a fuse. It may be the battery has a dead cell, or some light is on draining the battery. It can also be a stuck relay.
Something is on draining your battery overnight. Any light or any relay. It can also be your battery has a dead cell draining it overnight.
depending on the year I have had issues with a 1990 and a 1992 grand caravan problem was the light in the glove box the contact would turn the light on periodically draining battery
There is an easy way to find out what is draining the battery on your car. Disconnect the positive or negative battery terminal. Not both. Connect a test light between the post of the battery to the cable end of the battery. If your car is draining the batt ery the light will show it. To find out where the drain is coming from just pull fuses until the light goes out. Then you will know what is draining the battery by the function of the fuse you just pulled. For example, if you pulled the fuse for "radio" and the light went out you would know the radio is drawing the current off your battery.
A person can reset the service engine light in a 1998 Tahoe by disconnecting the battery cables for 1 minute. After the battery cables are reconnected, the light should turn itself off.
Dead cell in the battery requiring a replacement battery or some light is on that is draining the battery. Can also be a stuck relay.
If the parking lights are on when the car is off its probably a switch issue.
sell it
alternator. go to a parts store and have them test the charging system. must will do that for free
Ok i have replaced the battery and two alternators and replaceds the rear hatch light switch. still when i connect a light between the negitive battery post light comes on. Power continues to drain the battery over 4 days its dead. Why is it still draining? If you have checked every single light on the vehicle and none of them are on draining the battery it is more than likely a relay that is stuck. Check every relay in the vehicle.
Loose connection? Bad ground? Weak battery?
Something is pulling power from the battery. I assume you checked the battery to see if it is ok and does not have a bad cell. Can be any light on the vehicle that is on. Under hood light, trunk light, courtesy light, glovebox light, trunk light, or even a brake light. Can also be a relay that is stuck.
