Power latch relay parasitic draw


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, I have 1989 jeep mj 4.0. I have been having issues with a draw on my jeep and finally did a draw test. Found my power latch relay is staying on far too long and is drawing about 1 amp at all times. What does this relay do and how do I fix this issue. THANKS!!!

When KEY OFF, after ENGINE RUNNING, power latch relay stays ON for 3-5 seconds, allowing Idle Speed Actuator (ISA) to reset for next START UP.

I’m assuming when Power Latch Relay (PLR) is removed from circuit current drain goes away.

 

-Faulty PLR.
-Faulty wiring at the PLR block.
-Short to Ground between PLR_2(85) and ECU_A9.
-Faulty ECU.
