hi i have got a 2004 ford transit lutton i can switch my lights on when the engine is not running i have to have all the lights on but not the full just the side lights and along the side and in the back of the lutton does having the lights on run your battery down?
email me with the answer to jamessmith92@hotmail.co.uk
Why do you want to leave the lights on anyway? As John as stated above i agree? Obviously you can leave the side lights on if you are just popping in somewhere for a moment but as opposed to leaving them on overnight especially in freezing cold weather when the battery needs as much juice in the morning to start the van. In answer to your question NO only momentarily, Just leave your radio on overnight and see what happens in the morning.

Sure it does - the more and higher wattage lamps you leave on, the quicker your battery will run down. Side lamps and internal lamps don't use a lot of current though, and if you have a large capacity battery (or 2 in parallel as per some transits) it could take a while.
