I found the cause of what it’s draining my starter batteriy
The alternator
There’s 2 wires
- (a green/white) top wire in photo)
- (blue wire bottom wire )
If I remove the top (white /green) which has a constant 22V supply the drain from engine battery stops
The blue wire only gets current when ignition it’s tuned on
What’s the top wire for ??
I tried to run the engine without the top wire and getting well above 14V on the stater bare so I’m amusing the alternator it’s working as it should .
Can anyone please share a photo of your alternator wiring
Thanks
