The battery was on a recond charge for 24hours prior. It brought the battery back from the dead, I didn't load test it though last night, my brain was cooked just finding the issue, I will test it tonight, and try to figure out where to look now.Quote:

Shite! Just did that last week flushing the GQ cooling system before finishing fixing/cleaning/re-wrapping my engine bay left side harness... didn't notice anything going crazy or smoky after that but you got me worried...Quote:

Could remove battery, chg it overnight and leave it at float (chg) voltage to see how she holds SOC. Still do load test.
Yes they are mate. I might disconnect the spotties and see what happens...Quote:

Anyhow.
I traced the wire back from the fuse box and it’s going to the VRS remote system for the winch.
Pulled the wiring through, got to the remote signal box, turned it upside down and I heard something lose inside the box. Like a stone was rattling around in it. I opened it up and a little eleccy thing dropped out.

Going to assume for now this is the root of the evil. I’ll order another control box and hope it changes things.
Then onto the next thing. Fix the f*%king wiring. Lol
It’s a mess!

That blue thing that dropped is a resistor.
Good find, Mudski. Electricity is a myth. Everything runs on magic smoke, and it looks like the smoke has escaped from the system.Quote:
