[romojohnny]

Hi guys, I have a slight problem with the power??
Started off with doing some maintainance on the car on a saturday. I didnt turn it on until monday morning... (not a long time)...on monday when I tryed to turn the car on I couldnt so i had to jumpstart the bugger
some things i have is 6 disk stacker (no problems)
3 blown speakers
nothing else, no lights staying on nothing......???

anyone else have battery draining problems?!!??

1. Possible culprits:

Poorly wired aftermarket sound systems if fitted;

Front Seat motors not shutting off and drawing power (check the electric motor in the driver's seat) ;

Faulty power window switch not shutting off power;

Motor in a power window not shutting down;

Faulty after market alarm systems if fitted.

I assume you have a healthy battery. If it is over 3 years old it may be on it's last legs so get that checked also.

2. Now that the battery has been discharged, make sure to disconnect the battery and give it a full re-charge.

Swap with a known good battery.

It's time for a visit to your friendly auto electrician to trace the fault for you.

Not sure on what it could be, but above posts say boot light etc, Doesn't the boot, interior glove box etc. lights turn off after an hour?? I've left my boot wide open and after a while the light is off. I think VY/VZ this is a feature on all. Could be a fault in the BCM??

Hope you get it sorted soon mate.
