The car is running find and all, nothing seems wrong with the car. However, something is seriously draining the hell out of the battery. I dont use it for two days and the moment I try to, the battery is gone. I've jump started the car many times now.
What could be the problem? When I turned the car off, I made sure nothing was on. Except the alarm but I'm pretty sure that that cannot be it.

Buy a 12V light indicator, and attach it in between my Neg part of the battery/cable? and start tampering with the fuses? Unfortunately yes. I would start with anything aftermarket though. But worst case is you have a wire somewhere that has rubbed against metal and is grounding your battery. |
