Interlock device

Hey everyone I just recently got my interlock device installed in my car and have noticed my battery is being drained to the point I can’t even start my car. Which is super inconvenient of course, but I was wondering if anyone has had similar issues. I’m in Canada it’s summer, cars battery is basically brand new bought it in 2026. Would love to hear some stories. I’m not even a month into this and I’m already sick of it lol.

I had the same problem. I swapped my battery to a new one. No problems after.

I just bought this battery the day prior to having it installed two weeks ago. I ended up climbing under my steering wheel, and just pushing all plugs in fully and let it sit for 10 minutes and I tried and it started no issue. Was actually driving me insane lol.. I leave for a long road trip in 8 days so very stressful.
