I have a 2005 Ford Ranger XLT 4x4 with 4L engine and AT.
From experience, I know that electrical problems can be more difficult to find then any other problem!
My problem is with a slow drain on battery.
Battery will be pull down to a no start, just click, within four days. I know I have an electrical drain because having the battery at full charge and disconnecting it for ONE WEEK results in virtually no discharge. Hook it back up and within four days it's a no start!
I can disconnect the ground cable and disarm the interior light and the test light--hooked between negative battery post and the ground cable--- glows VERY dim.
This is with the radio fuse removed.
I know that the PCM takes a certain amount of voltage, but from past experience, the voltage draw is so small it will barely make the test light glow---if at all.
I don't see how the small amount of voltage drain could pull the battery down in four days?
