I've had this problem for a while and it's really pissing me off! I posted on it ages ago but got no feedback.
Anyways The battery power is lost whenever the car is off. What I mean by this is that I lose all stored radio channels, and my alarm goes off. It doesn't happen as soon as I switch her off - sometimes 5 mins, sometimes 5 hours. The car starts first time every time, and I checked the battery and recharged it a few days ago. (all in good condition). Any thoughts? |

It's the stock alarm system so I'm guessing it was either a robot or a 5 foot japanese person that hooked it up
 I have played with the stereo wiring, but everything is soldered and heat shrunk so I doubt thats it. I'm thinking its a dodgy battery. The one other possibility is that a switch I made for the power antenna is shorting, but then that would blow a fuse I would think. I have got an LED in without a resistor but I doubt that would bring the whole electrical system crashing down. I guess I'll just get the toyota people to look at it while its in for a service, but that will cost me $80 AUD per hour  damn ripoffs.
