Parasitic Drain Testing - Jaguar

We've all heard it. We've probably all said it too. "Man, I am just DRAINED today."
Do you find yourself juggling too much throughout the day? Emotionally or physically? No one is exempt from feeling emotionally and or physically depleted. There are ways to see it coming and to arm yourself against it.
HEY! We're here to help you with that DRAIN. Don't let yourself feel "stuck" or "trapped"
Join us, as we watch Rich demonstrate how he knocks his parasitic woes out of the park on this Jaguar!

Suprising that it only had one draw. Good stuff, Rich!

[@richfalco4333]

Yup, I expected much worse!! Ha

[@VoltageDropDiagnostics]

Heck of a video Rich, and TBT!

[@nicknicu1787]

Great case study,thanks for sharing! 👍 This is to compensate from the missing case studies we haven’t had during the livestreams. 😁

[@davidbauld5800]

For me, case studies are the effective way to learn. TBT are even better because they are actual currently working techs. You guys are awesome!

[@TrainedbyTechs]

Thanks David. Hey we think you're awesome too. We appreciate you taking the time to leave some love for us.

You can buy a small cheap amp clamp and meter on Amazon for about 20.00 dollars, for anyone that wants to test with out a scope or grafing meter , works very good, great video

[@fluffyninja9824]

Your video was excellent very informative . I’ve been doing custom installations in vehicles but never ran across anyone who could explain a parasitic draw the way you did. Thank you for the education.

[@kandkob]

Nice explanation on voltage drop on fuses, Thanks.

[@niallseddon8657]

Noticed the Vantage showing 19mA with the circuit off, so draw is even closer to chart value

[@richfalco4333]

Good eye! I didn’t wanna bring that up and confuse someone new to this even more.

[@stahuskies2539]

Awesome video! Glad someone took the time to explain voltage drop! A common source of confusion in our industry :)

[@Lambros_Stefaneas]

Definitely, the best video/ explanation of pasasitic drain I have ever seen. thanks for sharing your knowledge. 🙏🙏 And of course 👏👏👏👏

[@richfalco4333]

Thank you Lambros!!

[@paulpaquette1961]

Rich, you explain things very well, thank-you so much!!!

[@RenegadesGarage]

Trained by Techs.. Awesome video. Thanks for sharing it.

[@masongray9046]

Good class I like Briggs & Stratton DC shunt is a nice tool work well with the pico

[@nickayivor8432]

Good Afternoon Trained by Techs take care and have a great day 👍 Great tutorial 👌 👍 👏 From Nick Ayivor from London England UK 🇬🇧

[@schwazelbacher]

Good case study. Thanks.

[@kenlow4028]

Excellent instructions hard to come by thank you

[@Ianf1x]

Very Good instruction I like problem solving cars .but jags with positive earth use lots of relays that go bad as car ages.

[@domeniciozzi6009]

Well thought out and good job.

[@IAMNOSLEEP]

Thanks for sharing... Cheers.

[@steveburgandy2680]

Thanks for doing these. This is good stuff.

[@djosbun]

Thank you for putting together this excellent case study, Rich! I've missed the TBT videos as these are such great tools to learn from (or as a refresher course).

[@TrainedbyTechs]

Thanks for the positive feedback, Dave. 🙂

[@jedidiah4004]

Thanks Rich, Very informative.

[@philh9238]

Yea you see that way to often people unplug a module draw goes away. Then they replace the module. They don’t think of inputs or outputs

[@mikesautomotivediagnostics8080]

Thanks for the class. I have been using the voltage drop yes for a while now. I'm not sure that I would have cought the ignition switch.

[@najihusseini6679]

Perfect demo thanks

[@rickl7024]

Great follow thu to the end to diag this!

[@Peterdidntbuildit]

Has anyone found a way to easily test j case fuses..... seeing more and more of them

[@richfalco4333]

Pete, I hate those guys but it’s been my experience that a lot of those j case fuses are rated pretty high and usually protecting several smaller circuits further down the harness that probably have smaller standard style fuses on them so I always start with all the little, easy to access fuses and save those pita ones for last. But I’ve had to pry to covers off a few to test them.

[@stationaryenginesworldwide]

Now this truly was a great way of teaching voltage drop …! Totally excellent

[@richfalco4333]

Thanks!!

[@CartersDiagnostics]

Cool video.

[@nickayivor8432]

Very KNOWLEDGEABLE Thanks again Please do more voltage drop Please 🙏 Trained by Techs From Nick Ayivor from London England UK 🇬🇧

[@proudofthe3211]

EXCELLENT 🎯

[@anidiotinaracingcar4874]

The XK8 was the first Jag built under Ford ownership

[@adrianlowes1848]

Sparked my attention with jlr lol

[@michaelr6205]

Great content. May I ask what amp clamp you use? I have several, but sometimes the clamp jaws won't fit over the Bat lead(s). Thanks.

[@richardcranium5839]

on a jag? you got a horse shoe in your butt??? good case study. how many stop and throw in a module to still have the same problem???
