Hello all. I have a question that is causing me problems. My 2007 Honda crv 2.2cdti is not holding charge. I can take it on a long run during the day and the next morning it wont start. I then charge the battery for around 10 mins and all OK again. I have had the battery and alternator checked and they are both in great condition but something is draining the battery. Please can anyone suggest what it might be. Thank you.

It's a known issue. Your Bluetooth thingy is causing a parasitic drain.

Disconnect it. But then you can't use the voice commands

Thanks Hondream but I dont have any Bluetooth active on the car.

It is an issue on the Accord's, and these cars will share the same components.

 

You will have to get an Amp-clamp (or similar) and see how much current is being drained when the car is parked. And then start unplugging the fuses one by one to isolate the parasitic drain.

Is there a way to disconnect the blue tooth function on my car to see if it is that causing the battery drain.

I have looked on you tube and listened to what has been said on here and found the Bluetooth module. I have now pulled the plug connector and will let you know if the problem is fixed. Thank you all for the help.
