WEll to start off about two years about I started to get symptoms of a power draw on my GSX Then not until now has it really been giving me trouble.

So seeing as I don't really have the money right now to fix it I decided to see if I could find it out myself.

:D

So I do the whole test light with the negative cable and post connection. It gives the sign that yes you have a power draw. So I try to see what system it's in and come to find it's in the room circuit. So I get looking at it and see that it's supposed to have a 10 fuse and it had a 25 in it.
So quickly change it out and noticed that my thing doesn't give the sifn of a power draw with the test light. But it's still draining the battery. I have already put in a new alternator as of a few weeks previous to this and the battery is a week newer than it.

SO any Idea on what to do next would be helpful. :thumb:

I'm confused here, what exactly is causing the power draw?


Something is grounding out. My friend had similar problems, I believe they figured it out to be something with the starter.
