    Batt showing 12.48V

    There is other items that can reduce charging the battery. One if you do not use the vehicle often that little drain to hold memory will eventually drain yhe battery. Short rides and either too many aftermarket add-ons that the alternator cant keep up with or undersized alternator. Another is...

    Batt showing 12.48V

    Correct. The red and black probes are in the correct terminals. The measurement select dial needs to be on the 200 in grey at the six o’clock position. To measure you place one probe on one side/end of the wire and the other probe on the opposite end. To make it easier. For the engine ground...

    Batt showing 12.48V

    Each cell should be 2.1. v giving 12.6V 12.4 is low. Get the battery load tested and alternator tested as described above. Cold weather takes out batteries. Id also clean polish terminals and posts snd wipe the battery down. Use caution wiping as any liquid on the battery may be acid...

    That 1-3 inch of snow was 9 plus inches here outside Dayton OH. Level 2 emergency where you are asked not to drive unless necessary. Schools and some businesses closed. A day later and they are still plowing roads. Never look down on anyone unless you are helping them up - Jesse Jackson

    Checking for a parasitic drain

    The zero-reading may be due to a blown internal fuse in the multimeter. This meter is different than yours., but should give a good enough to learn. https://youtu.be/RkzSub1dtNQ?si=r7_NEZsiUSHPEpff Never look down on anyone unless you are helping them up - Jesse Jackson

    BTW. What is the other red wire on the battery? What does it go to? Never look down on anyone unless you are helping them up - Jesse Jackson

    Checking for a parasitic drain

    The probe you mention. Does the light change red and green? Test it on the good battery. There shoukd be a + clip and a - clip. Connect to the battery respectively + to + and -to -. Touch the top to + and it will turn red. Touch - terminal and it will be green. Touch anything not connected and...

    Checking for a parasitic drain

    The battery you borrowed. What size is it? Was it charged? And what is the CCA rating on the battery? Charged does not just mean it reads 12.6V . It means it reaches its CCS rating under load or at least 97% of it. Never look down on anyone unless you are helping them up - Jesse Jackson

    Checking for a parasitic drain

    Ok. We all have learning moments. This is one. The meter set up in the first pic is correct. You need to DISCONNECT the (-) battety terminal and go between the post and lead. It looks like you removed one of two grounds. I cant see. You might try swapping hands. Black to battery post and red to...

    Checking for a parasitic drain

    I don’t want you to measure Hz. You had the meter set to Hz in the earlier pic. Never look down on anyone unless you are helping them up - Jesse Jackson

    Checking for a parasitic drain

    Do not try to start the engine with this reading mA. Just look for drain. Startinf draws lots of current snd may damage the meter. First read leakage current key off. It should be 20-50mA. Never look down on anyone unless you are helping them up - Jesse Jackson

    Checking for a parasitic drain

    BLACK in COM. RED in mA to the left of the black. Then RED probe on connector to battery. BLACk probe on (-) neg terminal. There is no conversion from Hz to Amps. You werejust in the wrong measurement area. The mA area reads from zero to the value you set it for. Never look down on...

    Checking for a parasitic drain

    Your dial needs to be more in the six o’clock area. Near the “A- - - ”. It is in the “Hz” area trying to measure Hertz or frequency. I would set it on the ‘two hundred m’ that is yellow or orange. The white numbers are for AC. This is a DC system It is hard to read the words in the pic but...

    Fuel injector replacement and overall EPA questions

    1.) Have you reset the PCM/ECU?? Disconnect the battery and turn the key to start so all charge is blead out of the electrical system. Reconnect the battery. This resets stored/learned settings back to factory. Then they are relearned over the next number of starts from cold to running temp and...
