Default Fridge.

Hi everyone, bought my first Jag and joined the club.
Unfortunately I have a problem.
Battery draining overnight.
Need to isolate each fuse to check battery draw but dont have a wiring diagram of where the fuseboxes are located.
Hope someone can help.
Thanks...John the Fridge.

Default Help..Help..Help..

Hello everyone and thank you for welcoming me into the club.


I'm still having problems with this ruddy battery draining.
I've found isolating the 10amp fuse to the BPM reduces the drain to 40m/a
but when I replace the fuse it jumps up to 170m/a.
Is it possible there may be another fuse which is causing the BPM to show this excessive power draw.


Thanks for your help......John.

John,

You are posting this question several times across the wrong tech forums almost faster than I can find and move them!

1. In XK8/XKR:

https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...t-help-139652/

Irrelevant as it's a totally different electrical system.


2. Originally posted in X350 (2003-2009) which I've now moved to X300:

https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...-drain-140563/

X300 tech forum is the place for tech questions about your model.

Sorry about that Graham.....
This is the first Jag I've owned, I thought it came under XJ6 not X300
I will remember next time I need advice.
Thanks again.....John.
