E46 Battery Drain

Recommended Posts

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

The FSR is probably the cause, however other components and control units can cause this. Unplug the FSR and see what happens over a couple of days. We test this buy doing a voltage discharge test in sleep mode. It should be around 20 mA.

LOTS of them on Ebay, and with the NZ Dollar so strong, good time to buy.

Ebay Example
