Waynemarlow Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 My Forester XT 2015 has had problems from new with the Battery will flatten over a few weeks if we don't use the car. Bulldog Twyford looked at it a couple of times without real success and then opted out when I missed a 12 month service ( I promise I won't swear, but xxxxxxx ). Anyway we have always blamed a rear boot not shutting correctly at times, but today I started following it through and disconnected both the rear boot closure and the lift mechanism to find I still have about 0.39A draw in standby. Pulling fuses both the Backup fuse and the SBF No8 fuse are pulling current. I can understand the Backup fuse but what is SBF No 8 ? The SBF No8 is a 50A fuse, what draws that sort of current ? Any clues please would be welcome. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waynemarlow Posted November 11, 2023 Author Share Posted November 11, 2023 As an update, the Backup fuse current is 0.07A. I've disconnected the alternator completely and its still a 0.32A Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
