Battery Drain
My 92 Accord keeps discharging the battery. When I lift the battery terminal, I'm measuring 30 ohms to ground, enough to slowly run down the battery. The low resistance goes away when I pull the 80 amp alternator fuse, but stays when I disconnect the alternator at the fuse box. I've pulled all other fuses and relays, and still have the low resistance. The only other thing I'm seeing in the circuit is the electronic load sensing. Unplugging the ELS connector doesn't seem to help. Any ideas?
Thanks, Jim

Run this test is a parasitic draw test. http://www.mightyautoparts.com/pdf/articles/tt63.pdf On your car you want about 30 mA draw. If you have more than 30 mA start pulling fuses lets say you pull your radio fuse and it drops the radio would be the problem or anything else powered by that fuse.
The ohms in your cables will make it hard to start and hart to charge the battery. So yes it is a problems also.
Have you had your batter tested?
