    parasitic drain on battery

    Hoping this will put an end to my story......a few weeks ago, my starter went out with no warning....had to have car towed. Car starting like a dream now, could that have been the problem all along? Going to have fuses reinstalled in remote start in a few weeks, so wish me luck!

    parasitic drain on battery

    Still no resolution to the problem. Funny it's happening on 2007 models.

    parasitic drain on battery

    My second battery didn't come from Ford. I got it at the local parts store. They also tested the battery and said the cells were all fine. Not having as much trouble this winter with it starting since I had the fuses removed from the remote start. However, I sure do miss it. I just gave up.

    Newbie, new Mustang (and Ford in general) convert

    That is so funny. It could have been (almost)written by me. First time Ford owner, Firebird lover through and through. I have owned 2 firebirds, and was waiting for the new ones to come out when Pontiac bit the dust. I had just bought a 07 mustang and have been paying it down with the...

    When I had to leave my car outside during a very heavy rain, I have had leakage from the window also. My windows are the type that roll down about a half inch when you open the car then roll back up when shut. (not sure what the 2005 model does.) Will have to remember that next time car is in...

    parasitic drain on battery

    Thanks for the message. I don't leave keys in car, but I could see how that would hurt it. And yes, the remote is an aftermarket item. I think Autoco East is tired of seeing me to pull fuses. Doing it again tomorrow. Crap, how I like a nice toasty car.

    parasitic drain on battery

    Update: rehooked up remote start on Wednesday. Car started fine on Thursday and Friday. Saturday afternoon and Sunday, car was very very sluggish. Maybe the remote is part of the problem, just don't think it's the whole problem.

    parasitic drain on battery

    I always turn off radio when exiting the vehicle. So much, that my husband hates it when I do it in his truck. Thanks!

    parasitic drain on battery

    Does anyone else have this problem? Have a 2007 Mustang (2 years old this month). Something is draining battery, and Ford dealership can't figure it out. Took it in 3 times now. If I let it sit a day and leave to go to work in the morning, the engine has a extended crank. I have...
