Drained battery

2002 ford expedition, after sitting for a few days, something drains the battery. I have heard it was the rear wiper causing this, any opinion on this and a solution? Thanks all.

Re: Drained battery

It could be the rear wiper, it could also be a bad battery, it could also be something completely different. The only way to find out is to diagnose it.

The best way to diagnose it is to do a parasitic draw test. Eric the car guy has an excellent video on YouTube detailing how to do one.

Re: Drained battery

If the rear wiper is causing battery drain on your 2002 Ford Expedition, it's likely due to a faulty wiper motor, switch, or relay that leaves the system powered even when off. To confirm:

Remove the Rear Wiper Fuse – If the battery drain stops, the wiper system is the cause.
Test with a Multimeter – Measure current draw with the ignition off. If it’s high, pull fuses one by one to pinpoint the issue.
Repair or Replace Parts – If the wiper motor or switch is at fault, replace them to stop the drain.
