| Battery | | Toyota MR2 MK2 Turbo - battery keeps draining | | recently had my alternator done but the only problem is that the battery still goes flat and when its close to running out all the warning lights come back on. I know that replacing the alternator has done something because it has stopped the warning lights from being on all the time. can any one help? - Fix/Recommendation |

On some mr2s its contained inside the alternator but on others it is a seperate unit! |

Also if you have a turbo timer it can leave the ecu
and that can drain the bat. |
