    Default Electrical problem with 93 Toyota pickup.

    Hello, i have a 93 toyota pickup SR5 3VZ-E engine in it. lately there has been something screwy with the electrical on it. ive replaced the battery and the alternator recently but still my battery will be dead the next morning after driving it. also its idling at about 250 rpm when warmed up. sometimes the volt gauge goes all over the place when im driving and it seems as though something is draining power or as if there is a loose connection. One thing is it that the previous owner put an electric fan in and has it all wired up to a theromstat he stuck in the rad. this fan will still run after the truck has been shut off until the engine is cool. i unpluged the wires leading to the fan and had no problem for a while. only lately have i had this weird electrical problems. any help would be great thanks!

    Put that fan on a switch instead of unplugging it, it probably needs it...

    The proper way to do it is run the e fan on the thermostat like it is, but install a relay inline so it the fan can only run when ignition is on.
