current draw

[TxVenture]

hey guys,

I'm having a problem of something running the batt. down over a period of 2-3 days if I don't start the bike or put in on a batt. maintainer. I have run it down to one of the blade type fuses in the fuse box that is located to the right front of the batt. location. It is a 15 amp fuse, but I can't find any info as to what circuit that fuse controls. It never blows the fuse, just runs the batt. down. If anyone knows what circuit that fuse controls, I could sure use the info.

Thanks in advance.

There are 3 fuses that are called out as 15 amp in schematics.

 

Head Light

 

Ignition

 

Hazard

 

Pull the suspect fuse and find out which one of these circuits doesn't work.

If you look under the cover for these fuses you will see a list of what they are for.

I'm thinking it's time for a new battery! There are a couple of very low current draw items that are on at all times for memory backup...

Pull that fuse out and connect an amp meter across the fuse terminals to see just what kind of current it is drawing. Then while the fuse and amp meter are out try everything on the bike to see what no longer works.
