hey guys im in dire need of your help i have a 92 240sx KA24DE and the battery keeps losing power , i checked the battery it was fine , next i checked the alternator ran the car then took the positive battery terminal off and the car still ran so i know it's not the alternator , i think there might be some electrical short and that's been draining the battery power, anyways i really need some help on this one , i wouldnt ask if i couldnt figure out any other alternative for what might be causing the loss of battery power , well , any replies you have will be greatly accepted thanks for looking nissan enthusiasts, later.
