My 1997 Toyota RAV4 battery keeps dropping voltage even though the alternator checks out. After fully charging the battery, I decided to test for a parasitic draw using my multimeter.
In this video I walk through:
• How to test for parasitic draw
• Where to connect the multimeter leads
• What readings are normal
• What 55mA actually means
• Common causes (aftermarket radio? alarm? something else?)
• How to isolate the circuit causing the drain
If you're dealing with a battery that keeps dying, this step-by-step test will help you diagnose it safely and correctly.
Vehicle: 1997 Toyota RAV4 2-Door AWD 5-Speed
Drop a comment if you’ve chased a parasitic draw before — those things can be sneaky.
