So i recently just start loosing juice to my battery and it is making my car not wanna start, but i cant figure out why its getting drained. The only thing i have done to my car recently was a ble LED conversion on all my guages and they all work. I wouldnt thing that from me messing with them could drain the battery somehow. Any ideas????

and i also have got my battery and alternator checked and they are both all good.

Your LEDs could be causing parasitic draw while the car is off.

and what is a way i could check to see if thats happening?

would suggest taping down the door switch so that you can leave the door open to check the fuses, otherwise when you open the door the meter will jump and you will need to wait for all the modules to go to sleep again.

Somehow something is drawing current even when the car is off. Maybe something was done wrong when the install happened?

yea thats what im guessing too,all the LEDs work on my my gauges but idk how to test which one is drawing current while the car is off

Disconnect and use a test light.

Thanx for all the help everyone, i got everything fixed including my blue LED swap

Were the LEDs the source of the problem?

no it was something dumb that i over shadowed with thinking that it was all the new soldered LEDs. the whole time it was just that my Negative Terminal on my battery was way to loose and drained the battery so i bought a new one.

Also if anyone has any questions or anything about the gauge LED conversions for there Z they just send me a message thanx
