Hi everyone,
1984 Corolla KE70, stock engine and everything, battery less than one year old. No issues but shortly after installing a remote central locking kit the battery kept dying.
Cheap aftermarket kit mind you, and I wired the power directly to the battery in the engine bay.
Is the likely cause of the drain the remote central locking? If so
- Is it the continual drain caused by the remote aspect always sensing?
- Could it be a problem with the unit itself?
- Is it the poor wiring? Should it be connected to something else?
- Would a larger battery compensate for the drain if it is caused by the remote sensing?
If anyone can provide me with some advice it would be really appreciated. Setting up a new KE70 and transferring some parts over so I want to do a good job of it this time rather than rushing it. :D
