-I am getting a constant discharge on my battery
-I wired my meter in series between positive cable and the positive post on battery (when battery is fully charged) -it shows draw of 1.97 amps -have a 1975 with 66k miles and most everything stock from what I can tell -I have taken the troubleshooting as far as I can and now stumped -in the picture if you see the two red wires crimped on one terminal that is where my draw is coming from -thought that went to relay board, so I have unplugged all (3) of my relays, both fused, voltage regulator and 3-wire plug going to alternator, still can't get rid of the draw -anyone know where those two wires go? or has anyone seen this before? thanks, Attached thumbnail(s)

-pulled fuses one at a time, nothing changed
-unplugged regulator from the relay board, nothing changed -still drew 1.97amps with each fuse disconnected or any relay or the regulator (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |
