Can anyone tell me the exact locations of all the earth straps please? as I think I've got a dodgy earth somewhere! (draining battery while standing)

Thanks

This may seem a very silly question , but have you checked that you haven't left your boot open, perhaps by accidentally pressing the key fob boot release button?

I did this recently, left my car in the garage for three days and the battery had drained completely flat !! (The bulb for the boot has now been removed!!)

Just another simple thing to check before you check alternators and starter motors as you were suggesting in your earlier thread.

Hope all checking goes well.

That was the first port of call so to speak, I have this morning checked an earth strap (the ones under battery tray) 5 in total,the bolt snapped while undoing it plus it had corroded a bit, Ive now gave it a brand new one hope this cures it[/quote]

I think it has .................everything crossed
