I seem to have a battery drain.
I took off the negative terminal wire and put a test light between the terminal wire and the post and it had a bright light. I think this is the old school way you do it to check for shorts and battery drain.
This is a 1968 and they seem to have their own way of doing things.
Just would like to know what is hot and not when the ignition switch is off.
With positive and neg cables attached to the battery as normal, and with ignition off, I have power on the main lug on the starter coming directly from the battery.
The horn relay is hot, along with the alternator. The alternator had been changed out to a 120 amp alternator and the cable from the battery at the starter goes through a high rated fuse and onto the alternator. So maybe this is expected to be hot because it is tied into the battery cable at the starter.
The ignition and dash wires connected to the horn relay are also hot.
Does all these wires suppose to be hot when the ignition is off. Seems like this all could be a drain on the battery.
Any suggestions.
