Re: Power Distribution Box 2005 PSD & "resting" current draw
etbadger,
That's what I thought, seems obvious even given my limited training in electronics. I'm dealing with Larry Miller Ford in Salt Lake City...does anyone have advice about how I should proceed? I feel really strange about correcting a tech on their technique, especially if it's their standard practice. But if it's wrong, it's wrong. I've done a considerable amount of altering to this van, including a Fibrine top, 4x4 conversion, and a house battery system. I have not tied it in to the stock vehicle electrical system yet though, it's still completely separate.
While the vehicle is still under the bumper to bumper warranty, with many years left on the PSD warranty, I know that not all dealers want to honor the warranty when so much has been done to the vehicle, specifically the 4x4 conversion...so I don't want to piss anyone off.
I thought of talking with the service manager, but imagine that if he's not technically inclined he might just go with what they've always done.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Oh, and I edited this to say THANKS to everyone for the great information on this site, I've found it extremely useful in my modest home build. Specifically, THANKS a ton to the Badgers, your documentation of your van build and modifications are a HUGE help. Cheers!
