Hey Mafia,
I've been having this annoying battery drain problem for a while now. I just got a new battery because the original one died. No worries, that's not a big deal. However, I've noticed that after a day or two of sitting, it was weak to start. Strange. Just this weekend, it sat from Thursday evening until Sunday morning, and I had to get a jump. There wasn't enough juice in the battery to turn the starter.
I don't think it's the alternator, because once running, the car doesn't stop. A bad alternator would not keep the battery charged, and eventually the car would run out of voltage and not have enough to keep running.
Based on some basic internet research, I think the culprit might be the final stage resistor. Although I haven't experienced any erratic fan speeds, it seems to be the only thing I've noticed that causes this issue.
Does anyone else have any similar issues or any other suggestions?
Many thanks,
Pete
