Hello.
I hope someone may be able to help with this.
I have a 2004 Panda and have installed a dummy LED flashing red light. This worked correctly however it appears to have drained the battery after just a couple of days, when apparently it should have a minimal effect.
The details of the wiring done are as follows:
Red (positive) wire connected to Fuse F52 - Rear Window Wiper
[The power to this fuse seems to be always on]
Black (negative) wire connected to Fuse F51 - Body Computer Control Unit / Instrument Panel
[The power to this unit appears to be on only when the car is running]
Fuse taps have been used here.
No resistors used.
No relays used (only fuses)
The blinking LED works on 12v DC and draws 10mA
Any advice or thoughts would of course be welcome.
Thanks in advance
