Car not starting battery being drained
 

Hi All,
Had problem with not starting, battery low. Checked drain on battery and found drain current 500mA. After removing fuses one at a time it showed F32 in internal fuse box appeared to be the one that was causing the problem, it’s removal dropped drain current to 50mA. I now have no central locking and drivers window not working, all other windows OK.Also no internal lights.

Anybody got an idea what may be causing this drain, plenum dry by the way.
Many thanks in anticipation.
Mike.

Fuse 32 10Amp Diesel model. ABS control unit and TCS control unit and switch. There is a 5Amp fuse in the engine bay fuse box that appears to be shared by Windows and central locking, according to Haynes wire diagrams. Only other connection is the BCU as far as I can tell. Worth a check of that fuse.

Thanks will check that out.
Battery now on charge to see if without the drain it will fully charge.
Thanks.
Mike

My tourer had a drain from the sat nav unit. I disconnected it and it's been fine ever since.
