Dylan Posted October 11, 2023 Report Share Posted October 11, 2023 Hi, I have the Dodge Journey RT 2012. No matter how much we drove, if the engine off for 8hrs plus then no start. The battery is about 3-4years old. Everyday we need a jumpstart for the engine and it drive fine. Do you have any ideas of this problem? Should the change of battery help? thanks for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John/Horace Posted October 12, 2023 Report Share Posted October 12, 2023 Blue tooth module failure is most common issue for parasitic load. Something staying on and killing battery rapidly. Fuse is in passenger kick panel I believe, try removing for a few days. . Need a meter to test amperage draw 5 mins after car is shut off. Should be only around 70-80 milli amps from radio memory,digital clock. Check all charging outlets for nothing being left plugged in. Glove box light not staying on etc. Dylan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
