hi
im having a few promblems with my battery on my gsi, it fails to hold charge for any longer than a few days. Its a new battery so this rules out faults with the batery its self, i have checked all the simple things like nothink is left on in the car light or power wise. Any information will be appreciated or if any body has had any simlar problems?

cheers :)

fit a tester in line between the +ve terminal & the battery, and then start removing fuses one by one, and you'll see if a certain circuit is leaking. also try disconnecting the alternator wires, as they are a common leakage fault.

do you have the earth from the alternator?
