Just a follow up, I've taken out a lot of bodged wiring (rear view camera, towbar electrics) replaced them with dash cam (front and back) a relay for the towbar, added a parrot hands free (phone and music player) and the amps dropped to 800ma. The fuse 12v out Ign/ Batt was in the ignition, so I swapped it to battery now the amps are down to a little under 400ma - That'll do for me

Just as a matter of interest what does the actual cigarette lighter draw amps wise

Reading this about the amp in the back i'd thought I better take a look. found a power lead about 8 foot long going to some sort of USB plug that was rusty and bloated, scotch blocked to the amp power lead, so that could be a lot of the drain (no fuse to be found anywhere). Next the towing socket....all scotch blocked again so this might be another source of the drain. Had enough for today so I ordered Tow bar bypass relay for Cambus vehicles. I'll see if I can do another test in the morning. ( I've also ordered the Car Battery Switch Isolator Terminal Quick Cut-off) Belt and Bracers

Sorry I've been away for a while and thanks for your input, I think Maxcaddy has hit the nail on the head. I've followed RichardM's instructions with the testing on the Amp side i'm at 1.84Amps so somethings wrong, pulled all the fuses and relay's no changes with the reading , what's next chaps

Hello, me again...Cold morning, day 4 of owning this car......Battery Flat The battery was new in jan this year, it's a Lion 70 Ah 610 CCA, is this suitable for this car? I've got to wait until the battery is charged before I can see if the alternator is at fault, or I have a drain...... Hopefully the battery's not man enough

Now do I feel a fool.....The wife just showed me how to do it, she'll be dining out on that one for a while

I think this is 3 strikes and your out type question.....Only to be answered by RichardM (the bringer of bad news lol) Is there a courtesy light for when you open a door?

Loving this.... Thanks RichardM

Didn't do too good with the fault finding question, so let's see if this does any better - Hands free kit, any recommendations for a good hands free, I've got a parrot in my van (which will be going soon) which works great, can I use this? Cheers

Looks like i'll skip that one then Cheers for the reply

(First post go easy :) ) My Chrysler Grand Voyager 2.8 2006 is being delivered tomorrow, first time owning one so i'm looking for a fault reader, not sure what one to buy looking to spend up to £150 (England) Any Recommendations' Many Thanks
