    Battery

    Hello long time lurker 1st time poster retired Milton Bradley mechanic
    My friend has me working on his 1995 e320 has parasitic battery drain.
    Found the dome light delay function drawing 70 mil amps pulsing back and forth
    Part no longer available so just disconnect..
    My question is I can only get the battery back up to 85 % charge according to my snap on battery tester micro vat.
    I have charged over night 10 amps automatic. And will do again tonight
    Haven’t really worked on cars much lately but was wondering what your thought were on the battery at 85 %..
    I let it sit for 2 days and the micro vat says bat good needs charge
    Thanks...Reggie

    Battery

    Charge it all night long and got 87% .. remove the charger and.
    About 5 hrs later it’s up to 97% charge
    I thought the battery was bad even though the micro vat said it was good.
    I am done. Just thought I would finish the story
