How To Test Parasitic Draw on a Car Battery

In this Steves Garage video I test for parasitic draw test on a car battery. Provided you have a multimeter with an amp setting, it's an easy check to perform. If your car battery is draining too quickly - overnight, during the work day, or even over a couple days, you could have a parasitic draw condition. This is when something is running in the background that is draining your battery. While there are many things that can cause a parasitic draw, the first thing to look at is any aftermarket component you might have installed. Aftermarket lights, radios, remote start or alarm systems can all be a point of draw if something is wired incorrectly and not shutting off with the key.
