    Ve commodore series 1 LLT power draw

    Yea sounds about right. I’ll probs get it changed next service which will be in a couple of weeks. Not sure how it’ll go but it’s worth a shot. I also may look at getting a battery charger as a temporary fix just in case starts drawing again.

    Ve commodore series 1 LLT power draw

The wreckers replaced it with a ve series 2 mechanism and it's been sweet since. What causes the actuators to not tell the BCM that the doors...

    Ve commodore series 1 LLT power draw

    I kinda agree with what you are saying but last couple months I have been driving pretty much everyday and last weekend it started playing up so I'm not really sure what to think tbh. Are there any other reasons why a VE would be draining heaps of current? I've also heard from other threads that...

    Ve commodore series 1 LLT power draw

    The battery is only a year and a half old i've had both sparkies load test it and both said that its in great shape. The wagon has done 236,000kms and this issue has been going on since about june last year. One of the things that make me think it could be the starter is when it struggles to...

    VZ Commodore doesn't start first time after filling up

    Yea I've heard that when it starts to play up after filling its usually the solenoid. The last weeks however it's gotten a bit worse where if I do 5-6 stop start trips, 3 out of 6 it would start perfectly fine no issues but the other times it would do what i have spoken about. I have suspisions...
