Not much interesting has went on lately I have had two gm's with a
parasitic battery drain. Not long after the china flue I had a run with this issue most of the time their was not much I could do about it. If you completely drain a battery a few times it does take its toll on the battery. I guess I got it across you have to drive it a bit every now and again. On one I did not find a thing wrong with it other than letting it go dead so many times it hurt the battery.
They have lost the remotes are thought the one they had was defective. Their complaint sometimes the alarm goes off if you use the key to unlock the door. I tried to defeat the alarm I think I missed are did not see the wires in the door latch I needed to jump till after I had ordered and programed 4 new key fobs. It got a new AC delco 140RC battery.
On the second one a 2002 Cadillac Escalade (A real P.O.S) it did have a battery drain of 175ma. It takes a good 2 hour for those to power down this one took 4 hours to power down to 175ma. Its hard to do these old school when you pull a fuse and put it back in it can and will wake it back up and then you have to wait hours for it to power down. My scan took has a function to power it down I am missing something its not working like I think it should.
OK I am stuck on 175Ma before I call it a day I pull out my flir thermal imaging camera I see a circuit breaker in the dash fuse center that's hot.
I pull it my drain is gone : ) I put it back in I go though the interior looking for something that sticks out the cassette player sticks out.
I remove it from the dash
I disconnect it the drain is gone : ) I can live with 30ma
My honda has a leak I thought it was the sunroof to make a long story short it ended up the pinch weld where the roof is connected to the A pillar was where it was at. I had already started digging all the factory sealer out when I took the pix. No pay in working on your on vehicle its hammer down not much time for pix. Lower left is the top left corner of the windshield NO WAY i would buy a new car with a hole in the roof. Back to the Cadillac I fixed the sun roof from leak sometime back he told me the sunroof leaked on the cassette player and it stopped working.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
