Pulled my Security Fuse to stop parasitic drain, is this ok?

10-21-2009, 08:23 PM

Hey everyone, my Security system was pulling about 150 mA of current draining my battery every night. I have removed the 10A fuse, thus cutting off the system, now I'm at around 12-15 mA. Other than making the car easier to steal, will this cause any problems?

Thanks in advance,

If it's the hood sensor, you can unplug it and it will work for the hatch and doors still.

It is not recommended to confirm proper installation by driving into walls or other barriers as this could cause personal injury or damage to the vehicle.
