alanmacc 0 Report post Posted August 11, 2011 Hi guys having a battery drain on my E36 330ci, I have a feeling its the FSR but not too sure as the fan still seems to work although it did seem to run on a bit longer than it should when i turned the car off?? Had a look about and the prices are shocking, JC BMW want $350 for this part not fitted!!!! any body got suggestions for a better place here in Christchurch, i could go down the breakers and try to pick one up but might have the same issues so im leaning towards a new one but bloody expensive Thanks in advance Alan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We test this buy doing a voltage discharge test in sleep mode. It should be around 20 mA. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
