How can I tell if my Honda Odyssey battery is draining?

How can I tell if my Honda Odyssey battery is draining?

To trace excessive current you have to start with a CURRENT meter at the battery and determine first how much current is being drawn. Several hundred milliamp is normal. If high you can then start pulling fuses to find out which one drops the current draw to a normal level.

What happens when you remove the fuse on a 7-1 / 2A battery?

When the #7, 7-1/2A, fuse was removed, the current draw went away. Removing this temporarily kept the battery from draining until the problem was solved. The auto manual will indicate which circuits this fuse connects to, including AC Clutch Fan Relay and Sliding Doors, among others.

Where are the sensors on a Honda Odyssey?

Open the rear sliding door (if a door has had problems, start with that door), when fully opened, on the car body door frame on the rear side you will see the latch on the body that connects to the door when closing. And below that latch are two small round sensors side by side that make contact with the rear part of the sliding door when closed.

Why is my Honda Odyssey battery draining so fast?

You appear to have a parasitic drain problem. I had this on a 2008 as well as a 2014 Honda Odyssey van. What the problem was is that a AC relay fuse had gone bad. When the fuse goes bad, it constantly tries to engage the air conditioning compressor even when the vehicle is turned off.

Where are the AC relays on a Honda Odyssey?

I notice that there are 10 relays with the same part number as the AC relay. There are 4 under the front driver side above the fuses, 3 on the front passabger side next to the fuses, and 3 under hood 1 being the AC relay. I went through 4 batters in a years time.
