Hi New owner of a 95 LX with 120k. I've got a few general questions about 2nd gen electricals. Basically I have about a 100ma parasitic draw and looking for some places to look. the battery was garbage and I just replaced it but I don't want it to kill the new one. I have a few questionable suspects though:
1) the dash clock is always on. Like really brightly on. My old subaru would 'turn down' the clock when keyed off.
2) the stock radio is wired hot. You can turn it on at any time with the key off or on.
3) i just replaced the rear defroster switch but I can't see how that would apply.
4) Alternator was replaced over the summer. Perhaps there's something in the field.
Any other ideas or comments on my issues?
Also, anyone know a good value for a parasitic draw? 100ma sounds high to me.
thanks
Ryan
