I did a battery test and i got good results i got a yellow top optima battery i think is less than a year old so i doubt is bad. Just installed a new alternator as well.
What could be draining the battery and how you find out whats causing this? I always had a system with a capacitor dont know if a bad capacitor could affect that? Thanks --------------------  |

I had set a hood switch that turned on the leds under the hood evrerytime i popped it. The cable melted and it was draining my battery. When i did the parasitic test it was showing -0.4 draining with them being off. As soon i removed the fuse it dropped to 0. I endup removing those leds and problem fixed.
