I hope someone can help. I changed my battery thursday afternoon because my old battery was totally discharged that morning. Yesterday morning I was going out and found the new battery was totally discharged also 0 volts ( a new battery fully charged and ready to go). I then put it on charge with a smart charger @ 3.5 amps from the afternoon and overnight, this morning I checked it and the charger is reading 0 volts and there is not enough power to light the dash board lights. I've checked that the light in the back and cab light is not staying on.I've checked the alternator which is giving 14. 25v at tickover, 14.3v @ 2000 revs and 14.4v with lights and radion on. The van's a Scudo 2.0 JTD 2006.
I haven't added any thing electrical to the van recently and this is the first time I've had electrical problems.
There must be a huge parasitic drain to cause this to happen anyone with any ideas?
