Hello, I have a question for you. I have a parasitic draw that is draining the battery. I have disconnected the negative battery cable and have hooked up my digital multi-meter. I have the red lead hooked to the disconnected battery cable and the black lead hooked to the negative battery post and it is showing a 1.67 to 1.75 parasitic draw.
Some of the YouTube video’s that I have watched, it say to start pulling out the vehicle fuse’s one at a time until the meter drops down to around 100 milliamps or less.
My problem is that my battery is in the truck of the car. I can’t watch my meter and pull fuse’s out one by one and watch my meter at the same time.
Can you tell me step by step how I can check the fuse’s to find the parasitic draw? I have one fuse box under the hood and another one inside the car on the right side. I don’t have a second digital multi-meter.
Just a reminder, my battery is in the truck and my multi-meter can’t be seen from front of the car.
Thank you, Bill H.
