The gayest voltage drain ever

[holemilk00]

Ok guys, so I'll try to be brief but informative.

93 vert KA-T

So the car turns to 7500rpm all day. Recently it left me stranded at night because it was just completely out of power.


Its a fairly new premium alt. so I took it off and had it bench tested, everything checks out.

Checked my battery, everything checked out.

Here is the weird thing now. The car runs great on a full battery charge and the lights OFF (for a limited time). If I turn the lights on and do a pull in the car it breaks up at around 5500rpms. Turn the lights back off, car runs great.

Drive the car around just at the speed limit with the lights off and it will at some point drain the battery, and over take the alt. and begin to shut down with no power.


Now things I've checked.

All the ground connection continuity
All the power supply wires for the headlights (among other things)
I've rewired half of the car looking for something grounding out
I've checked for blown relays
I've checked for wires that could be rubbed through

I'm stumped. Any suggestions?
