Default 940 Turbo Wagon Electrical Issues
Just purchased a 940 Turbo Wagon from a friend and knowing that I would be faced with a few issues I still went ahead a purchased it.



The biggest issue is that the battery is draining down. I can't really identify why.



It is related somehow to the fuel gauge working and then not working andthe other day the head lights stopped working and then started working the next day. Can anyone offer any ideas on this one?

Thanks

Ron

Is the glove box light stuck on? Put a multimeter on DC amps in series
with the battery then pull fuses until the excessive draw stops.

i think you had a defective battery in there, check first the cable and if it's working then it's really the battery. replace it immediately!
