heres the scenario.......h22 engine in a 96 hx body. For the past week, the car wouldn't start from time to time...had to push start the car. No kind of music system to drain energy from the car or anything like that.....took the car to schuck's and did a battery and alternator test and they said that cranking amps etc. is all looking normal ....what on god's green earth is causing it????? ne help would be appreciated
 
grounds are clean and secure......what about the alarm could i check??
 
take it to autozone. :p
mooH, but seriously, when i worked at autozone, my car did the same thing, and i found out i had a positive wire (for remote for my amp) grounding out on the car's frame under the door kick panel thing.
My battery would die in like 15 minutes if i left my car in the 'on' position.
so, maybe look for a positive wire touching somewhere to ground.
Mine was NOT sparking tho, it was a small wire too.
Also, my battery was FULL of corrosion because of the grounding out.
Maybe somethin to look for?
 
alarm could be installed in a dodgy way .. i heared that even certain alarms installed right drained batteries so ..
