Leaking current from a vehicle's battery is one of the most harmful situations that its owner can face. It is not difficult to locate the fault, however, the intervention of a qualified technician to repair it is imperative.

In essence, when it comes to car batteries or motorcycle batteries, current leakage is responsible for depleting the battery's reserves while at the same time over time it becomes impossible to start the vehicle. When a battery is "stuck" in a faulty circuit where there is a leak, it loses power and performance over time.

What are the causes of leakage?

The most common causes of current leaking from a vehicle are either a short circuit, or faulty devices or malfunctions in the vehicle's devices.

In addition, if a battery remains for a long time uncharged or slightly charged, then it slowly loses the stored energy it has, resulting in its complete depletion.

A battery is also significantly affected by very high temperatures. On average a battery loses about 7% of its energy at 38 degrees Celsius and only 1% at 10 degrees Celsius.

Consequently, there is a need to charge the vehicle battery once a month - especially when not in use - to always be charged above 80%.
