I had an issue with my A/C condenser leaking 134 so I parked the truck for about a week while I waited for the replacement to arrive.
The condenser came in and I unbolted tha radiator and pulled it out then pulled the condenser out and replaced it. Then I reinstalled the radiator and filled it. When I tried to start it the truck wouldnt even click or anything.
I put the battery charger on there and when I got it running I filled the 134 back up and checked the radiator. The truck was a little low so I turned it off and picked up a gallon of antifreeze the next day to refill it.
The next day after I filled it up I tried to start the truck again and it was dead again.
I have the charger on there again but I am afraid it will leave me stranded somewhere if I shut it off for too long.
Either the truck was having a problem before this and the parking just gave it time to drain or it is somehow related to the work? I dont believe that.
How do I test for a voltage draw with the key off? I am a shadetree king as far as bolting things on and off goes but have no clue about electricity.
Anybody have any tips they care to share?
Thanks, Eric
