727Designs Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Unhook both batteries and charge them separately then have them tested. Then get a DMM that is capable of measuring amperage draw, put the leads in the amperage draw slots and set it on the amperage draw section, take and put one lead on the positive battery terminal (unhooked from the battery) the other on the positive battery post itself and that will tell you if you have a draw. If you do start pulling fuses till it goes away. I have seen a few newer Mustangs do it because of the factory head unit / cd changer, but since you have no deck that's ruled out. I'd start with anything aftermarket removed one piece at a time.

OrionStang Posted December 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Yeah, gonna do the fuse checks in the morning. Too dark already, and I need to get some AAA's for my meter. IF it is a fuse, hopefully its in the engine bay fuse box, not the one buried under the glove box. Appreciate the help. If anybody can think of any off-the-wall shit or anything, fell free to post.

DubNDodge Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 I mean the cause of mine is my map and dome lights. I couldn't tell it with halogen bulbs, but once I put the LEDs in they are constantly on because of the ghost current or whatever it is called. The only way for them to shut off 100% is to disconnect the battery.

OrionStang Posted December 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 975 came off the charger at 12.7v and is already down to 12.38v less than two hours later. Still gonna charge and check the 1200, but that voltage doesn't seem good... Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrionStang Posted December 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Very hard to see in the picture, but both sides are bulging pretty bad. Enough to where the seam between the white top and grey shell of the battery is separating. I dont know how big a deal it is, but its not doing anything crazy on the charger.

Miguels Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 my brother has a d975 and it died very fast.. i have one too and sat for a few months and was resting at 12.4 so put it back on the charger.. small batteries are easy to fuck up.. my bike battery drains very quick,3 weeks and its dead. its also an agm and was new when i got the bike last july.. after a few months it went bad and now it needs a constant charge on it.. its been dead since october now so its time for a new one as for the s1200 bulging up.. put the charger on a lower amperage.. 1 d3100 on 75 amps was bulging. 5 d3100 on the charger fixed the bulging issue Quote my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrionStang Posted December 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 After sitting overnight, the 1200 is down to 12.04v. The 975 is at 12.3v. Shitty. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
