Re: Transmission hangs for a second and shifts hard
You could check your TPS. I have a GM truck that did that when the TPS was toast. It made it force shift but also the the lock up in torgue converter didnt work either.

Happy to say it is finally fixed, with the help of Harofreak.
I changed the PCM as that's where the draw was at. Then it wouldn't relearn the security, so this told me that next thing is to try changing the pass-key three security module. Went ahead and got that and the ICM along with ...

Re: 2000 parasitic draw, tough one
Thanks for the links
Harofreak is getting me a new pcm for a good price. If that don't work those vidios will help.

Re: 2000 parasitic draw, tough one
After waiting 8 hours car starts, battery didnt drop at all during this time. Shut off then after a few amp draw is back and jumping from .27-.69. I pull #8 pcm fuse again, put back in and it does just like before and drops off. so something on this circuit is not wanting to shut down. Thinking of ...

Re: 2000 parasitic draw, tough one
I was mistaken, that was the IGN. This car makes me crazy trying to figure this out. Yesterday the draw was at .34
Today it had huge draw .79 so started pulling fuses.
drop is amps going down
37 hvac batt .02 drop
29IGN .07 drop
25 has.02 drop
21 audio .45 drop
7drv mdl .02 drop

Re: 2000 parasitic draw, tough one
This parasitic draw has gotten worse. So took meter to it again and found fuse 30 under seat to be drawing, it has IP next to it . trying to find what it goes to. I'm guessing instrument panel .
Started car with out that fuse and none of the gages worked. so looks like I need a new cluster or ...

New alternator and two wire harness installed. Battery load tested at interstate good. Battery goes dead in two days now. Gauge still reading dead in car but is charging.
The wire on alt. thats supposed to be 12 volt is reading none. Probably was before, that new meter is funky and not impressed ...

Re: 2000 parasitic draw, tough one
Called shop today to ask about second harness, tells me its the same that u need two. He is telling me one goes on alternator, not so i find out after searching that part number on line. I find that one goes to each cooling fan, jumper wire with a diode in it. Lucky the same seller had one more wire ...

Re: 2000 parasitic draw, tough one
In your diagram it shows coming from the dash integration module. Do you no where that is? Maybe part of cluster.
YA i thought it was strange, how it could get that high.

Re: 2000 parasitic draw, tough one
It wasn't plugged in, just touched 12 volt to alt. I do think something is wrong with the pcm though, and it might be my other couple issues
I'm getting 5 volts at B
getting 38 volts at D

Re: 2000 parasitic draw, tough one
thanks 95... I'll try that.
Earlier I used a test light to trigger the alt. on the L terminal and the alt starting charging.
I think the L terminal is B on your pic.
Is the PCM in or under the air box.

Re: 2000 parasitic draw, tough one
I think I've done something to the charging system (maybe ECM). Put known good alternator in and still no charge. Checked all fuses and are good. I'm at at loss. Car does run just no charge as of yesterday.

Received the test switch today. Really no change in the readings I was getting before, .01. Went for ride came back, one thing I noticed when turning switch on and off I get a relay in the car that clicks, this is with the meter on, also the dash does some cycle thing when switch is closed.
So I ...

Re: 2000 parasitic draw, tough one
I have one of these at the shop I partner at with a friend on the weekends. It helps track down current draws like you are having and you don't have to worry about frying a fluke meter etc because you went past the 10amp max most meters have.

Re: 2000 parasitic draw, tough one
thanks ddadler.
What I did yesterday was put the amp meter inline and after it all shut down I never got more than .03 amps( is 30MA ?) watching up to 20 minutes. From what your saying is it must have hard wire hooked up then first then meter hooked up after that unhook hard wire. maybe this can ...
