How to Detect a Power Leak & Prevent Battery Drain
1️⃣ Prepare Your Car: Turn off the engine, remove the key
, lock the doors
, and unplug any unnecessary devices.
2️⃣ Set Up the Multimeter: Switch it to DC current mode
and select the highest amp range to avoid damaging the device.
3️⃣ Disconnect the Negative Battery Cable: Use a wrench
to remove the negative cable (usually black
). Make sure it doesn’t touch any metal parts.
4️⃣ Connect the Multimeter: Attach the black (negative) probe to the battery’s negative terminal, and the red (positive) probe to the disconnected cable.
5️⃣ Read the Multimeter: If there's current flow, there's a power leak!
A normal reading should be under 50 milliamps. Higher readings mean a battery drain issue.
6️⃣ Find the Faulty Circuit: Check the fuses one by one
. When the reading drops, you’ve found the problematic circuit.
7️⃣ Fix the Problem: Look for damaged wires
, loose connections, or faulty parts. Repair or replace as needed.
Solving power leaks protects your battery and keeps your car’s electrical system running smoothly!
