After the transmission in my 87 560 was replaced the battery will run completly down - so low it won't take a charge unless hooked to another battery for a few minuets. I had the battery tested it appears to be o.k.
I remember the guys at the shop complaining about how difficult if was to reinstall the starter (they said it took two hours), and now they are telling me the battery is discharging thru the starter and I need a new one.
Prior to the transmission replacement there were no issues with the starter
at all.
Could the starter be wired wrong? Or perhaps damaged during installation? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
