Electrical Problem, Something's Draining the Battery Options

[LeonStryfe]

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.

Thanks in advance

if you're asking these sorts of questions then i doubt you'll know how to correct the problem if you can find it. best bet is to take it to a shop and tell them whats happening and that you want them to do an Ignition Off Draw Test.

have you installed any electronics lately? perhaps some audio equipment?

People learn from asking questions. Yea I guess I'm still a noob about this but I rather start learning than to rely many times on a mechanic. Yea you're definitely right, I don't know how to correct the problem if I ever find it, but isn't that the reason why I'm asking for advices/help in the forum. To learn something about my vehicle's electrical problem? I wanna learn how to diagnose and fix my car. Only way to learn is to do it.

Anyways, I checked the fuses, as well the alternator and found no problem. So I took it to a mechanic and he too found no problem with them. So the next possible scenario I think is that there is a bad ground. All I know is that, it'll be a long tedious processto find it... question is being I'm still new to this, how do Ilook and what do I do?
