1988 Subaru GL, GEN (Alternator) Waveform
Posted to the Waveform Library on 8/3/1999

Vehicle came in as no start, no crank. After battery charge, drain while key off was measured between 1 & 2 amps (no problem seeing it with a test light). Disconnecting battery B+ wire from alternator eliminated drain.
