Default Battery Draining - 300mA CBR 600 F4

Hi there

My fiends bike CBR600 F4 have a circuit consumption of 300mA, draining is battery in a few days.

I start disconnecting major wires/plugs I can easy get hands on waiting for "leak" go away.

And well I figure out there's 2 wires next to Positive 10A fuse to "power" the bike, and the outside wire, that goes to front to power the front lights, speedometer and rest of stuff have the short probably.

I even disconnect the rectifier and stator from plugs and we keep have the 300ma consumption...


I have tank out... Maybe will need to remove front plastic que figure out....

The easiest way to determine the basic source of a parasitic drain is to remove your negative battery terminal and place a multimeter between the negative battery post and the cable. place the multimeter setting to amps. you should see a value other than zero. Remove each fuse one at a time until you see the value drop to zero.
When you find that, you have narrowed it down to that particular circuit.

well if is just that fuses under seat... nothing happen... but will try again...

on a online manual, I dont find more.... so i think my issue is more than a simple fuse...

maybe some cable jammed without fuses

I'm not saying your fuses are the problem, they simply represent the circuit with the problem.

The only unfused cable is likely to be the lead to the starter motor.
