My discovery 5 2018, has had the battery drained twice causing the car to completely stop in very difficult places. The last time it stopped this message was flashing. Both times I called AA after the car stopped the battery was drained almost completely. I had the battery changed to a brand new one but it happed again after about a week or so. What could be draining the battery or affecting the electrics? The garage suspects the Ghost, but a few people on the platform say they don’t have any issues on theirs. I had the windshield changed after it was leaking. Really don’t know what to do. The car has spent more time at the garage than me enjoying it. Pls help! I have had the car for just 2 months.

 

The alternator is dead? Have you measured the voltage coming off of the alternator when the car is running?

 

Has it had the battery ground recall performed?

 

Thanks. The car is currently at the garage so I will ask them to check these as suggested. At the moment they think it is the ghost which they installed.

 

Hi, what is the ghost? Did you ever end up getting this figured out?

 

No it was not the Ghost. It was water that was around the battery area that was causing the problem it seems. But I have not put the Ghost back yet. I will and I hope it still works. I just got the car back this week so testing it. So far so good. they had to take all the carpets out and dry them for days! They also did some updates to the system.
