Trae%eh6 Posted August 19, 2010 Author Share Posted August 19, 2010 ok so this is becoming a big fracking promble and im getthing piss. as you know i changed the alter. well it was still not working right. i had music going and went to start my car and it would not start. so i push it off. so it starts then dies about 30 seconds later. so i change out the wire from the alter that goes to the fuse box. jumped the car off and it worked fine. and the speedo started working again. and then about 2 miles into it. it stops working again. and now the battery is shot again so what the hell do yall think this could be im need of some real help. and the battery light doesnt come on saying that it dieing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DelSolSweetie Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 no only time i had a problem of battery draining was when i had a bad relay and when my alternator went out.. only time it died while driving and speedo messed up was when the alternator died random question: do you think your speed sensor could be messed up? dont think that would affect the car while driving though (not drain battery while driving at least.. it could though..)
