Tssss, tssss
This is not about my BJ40 but about my other car a 2007 Daihatsu Terios, Full extra's, Automatic, All Wheel Drive. Also know as Toyota Rush.
There is no forum page for this model so I post it here in the electrical section.
The question is: How much current is drawn from the battery when everything is switched off.
I have a FSM but the answer is not there. There are a lot of circuits "stand by". To name a few; radio memory, alarm system (blinking led's), remote controlled door locks and more.
A lot of circuits are not switched off by the key but are controlled by computer chips (ECU's) with memories that are kept alive by a direct battery feed.
The point is that I think that I have an excessive drain which causes the battery to go dead in 5 days when I don't drive it.
I was at the Toyota dealer today and they could do a quick check so I said OK.
After all, I only wanted to know if the current draw was out of spec.
Next thing that happened was that he was covering the steering wheel with plastic, the driver seat with a plastic cover, a magnetic number on the roof so I asked him what was going on?
The answer: We need two hours for the diagnosis to figure out what was going on.
Well, I know their price list so I cancelled the whole action.
Can anybody point me in the right direction. Any help is welcome.
