philian Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Hi all, Can anyone offer me any advise on this please? I have recently bought a mondeo st tdci 2005 and the battery keeps running flat. It's a 70ah calcium battery 100 type, it charges and seems to be in reasonable order, bought a year ago i think. Alternator reads 14.5v when running and battery reads 12.5 - 13v when off. I disconnected the neg lead and did a draw test by taping the meter leads in place and closing the bonnet with the car fully locked and armed, it read 0.15a for 5 minutes and then blew the fuse in the ammeter, i replaced the fuse and it did it immediately even if i disarm and unlock the car. Any ideas? Many thanks chaps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
