John, thank you for your explanation. I really can't thank you enough. Will definitely give it a go and see how it goes!

John, I really appreciate your help on this matter. Can you elaborate more on the reason behind disconnecting the alternator? What does it mean if the drain stops after disconnecting the alternator?

John, thanks for the method provided, I have never thought about measuring current. But in my case, I think the drain of power from the battery is quite obvious. Before the electrical system suddenly broke down last week, I have been constantly running the car through motorway. As there have...

There was no power getting anywhere, not even the window or central locking. So I guess the problem should be a wider electrical issue? Sorry for the confusion.

Unfortunately I have checked all the outlets from the battery and they are all getting power, so I guess it’s not the circuit breaker that was at fault. But thanks for the insight.

Yes I understand what you mean and sorry for the confusion. To provide more context, the resistance between the two terminals (with battery disconnected) was just 0.05 in a 200 Ohm setting, which seems a bit low. And after disconnecting the connector in the fuse box and putting back the battery...

Yes, I have the battery disconnected first before measuring the resistance between the two terminals. And the resistance was extremely low (reading was 0.05 on a 200 Ohm setting) until I disconnect the connector in the fuse box.

I have a Citroen C4 that is suddenly out of power completely (just like having a dead battery). The battery is checked to be still good and there is no blown fuse. I did some tests with my multimeter and found that there was continuity between the positive terminal and negative terminal of the...
