So here's an update....
I connected a CTEK lithium charger to the battery yesterday through the cigarette lighter. I let it charge overnight and according to the lights on the battery charger, it appeared to be at full charge.
After disconnecting the charger, and turning the key one position, I noticed the voltage on the dash was 13.7V. The motor cranked over easily and the voltage increased to 14.4V.
I drove about 10 miles and the voltage remained steady at 14.4V. I turned the lights on, and the voyage dropped to 14.2V.
The car drove well and like normal.
So I guess my issue is that something is draining the battery when it's parked and not connected to the charger. Either that, or the battery is faulty and unable to maintain a charge.
BuyBritish, how can I test the current between the battery and the electronics? Where do I put the volt meter? Do I do this when the car is running or off?
Is there a way to test if there is any current draw on the battery when the car is off?
Thanks guys for your help!
