my civic is playing with me,
1 : there seems to be a small drain of some sort going on which drains battery (cannot leave car sitting for a few days). So I hooked up a multimeter across the possitive and negative terminals to measure continuity and also ohms and the numbers start of at about .400 and climb up from there. I have pulled fuses out of alarm and disconnected my amps and other external equipment and still same thing happening.
2: Car will not start now, evan with a full battery and getting a jump from another car, my civic will click and the dash lights dim out yet there is a 14.4V 5.3A feed getting to the terminals.
Im currently in the process of removing the engine and have pulled a few non essencials of the bay, (front bar, PS pump, AC pump etc) but have not touched engine earthing or any plugs. So not to sure what can be the problem, just trying to pin point it before i drop in new engine and get same problems.
Due to the continual load on the battery, I have had to swap last battery due to the excessive drain (thank god it was under warranty), just want to get it started so I can pop passanger CV out , its parked against a fence..
Any help would be great in advance
