Hey guys, i have a Problem with my 2000 EK9:

Somehow i figoured out my battery would discharge very fast when the car is parked. means within 3 days or so.
At the same time the brake-lights dont work properly (both of them), but sometimes they do. i have the Feeling there is a loose Connection somewhere or some cable that scratches somewhere and makes a short to ground, which is emptying the battery.

Does anyone know this or a similar Problem and can give me a hint what to check and where to look?

thanks for the Support!
 
Yes, it's only two years old and usually connected to a charger.
 
it happens to me also. just replace the battery and check it again
 
Hmm strange.. But also the brake-lights? for some reason they sometimes work or don't work (even when car is running) so it's a bit strange. but maybe there is no link between These two Problems?
 
Seems like there were two individual Problems.
Problem 1: battery broken (for whatever reason). Since there was no leaking current. Battery replaced: Problem solved.
Problem 2: Brake lights don't work for whatever reason. I guess most possible reson is the brake light Switch behind the brake pedal. will investigate more on this soon :)
