I got a weird problem that likely has a simple solution. I have been trying to get the little bugs worked out on my car and I keep having to charge the battery. I finally broke out the volt meter and noticed something interesting. The battery is in the trunk but I checked voltage from a distribution block in the engine. After charging the battery I can watch the volts drop about .01 every second or so. 11.96....11.95.....11.94 and so on. I disconnected the negative post on the battery and checked the battery. It held the charge.
I added a couple of accessories with the swap. I added an electric water pump that is run through a 30 amp relay. It turns on when the key is on and does not run when it is off.
I added an additional relay to operate two more fans (4 fan radiator setup). Non of the fans have turned on so far. Haven't got it hot enough yet.
I added a H2O/Methanol injection kit. It uses an electric pump that I did not wire through a relay. It is triggered on by boost. It has a ground wire that I attached to the same ground I used with the original electric fan setup.
Where do you start when checking for shorts. My underwear look clean so now I need to look at my car. :lol
I never had a problem before I put these accessories on. Thanks for the help!!!!
