Well this is the 3rd time this month that I had to recharge my battery. Could it be my alternator? I just got my ITR last year brand new. Or could it be alot of stripped wires on my ECU. I also have DSM 450cc injectors and a electric fuel pump wired up. I have no sound system besides a cd player... what could it be?

 

anyone?

 

hello?

what are all your mods on the motor? regardless, i don't think it would be necessary to be running 450cc injectors.

With turbo yes it is.

Anyone?

 

Get the alternator and battery tested to see if they are functioning properly. Do this befor 'assuming' of what it could be, injectors and fuel pump have no impact on a batteries ability to keep a charge.

 

Don't leave your stereo on after your engine is turned off

 

I had the same problem,the dealer replaced my ecu,i think it got shorted when i got my alarm installed

 

thanks guys! it was my alternator and I replaced it.

 

check if it's the alternator or just a diode in the alternator. people will charge you for a 100+ alt for the cost of a diode which is like 10 bucks.

 

Thanks for the suggestion....my battery is toast right now also. I am going to get a new one (no time for the alternator, leaving for a trip...car is a trailer queen anyway) but if the new one drains...then I will do the alternator.

 

j00 running flywheel?

 

bring this thing back up because my battery is still being drained with the new alternator!

 

anyone?

Interesting... I am on my 5th battery... Just changed my alternator a month ago and another battery died. I need to take it back to the dealership to check it out again. I have yet to do it, but whenever I find the time I'll take it.

 

could it be my alternator again?!

 

Damn! Im gonna have to be on my 3rd alternator.... and I thought Honda alternators were strong

do you run aftermarket flywheel?

 

when you replace the alternator is also a good idea the replace your battery too, once you completely drain a battery it will never charge or supply voltage the same

 

yes im running a clutchmaster lightweight flywheel

 

that may be the problem.. it might not lign up with your starter at times - have you tested any of the batteries?

 

get a diagnostic from the dealer that should show u whats up
