Default Electrical Shutting off car while iddle and draining battery

Few electrical problems:

The cluster panel when i try to start all needles go to max and because battery is being drained it will not start but will start if I jump. Running it can run fine and when idle the car shuts off.

It was drawing from battery yesterday, started taking fuses out to find what was causing the draw didn't notice a change on any of them. Decided to to start the car, all problems had disappeared and car started fine.

Main problem with it is acting up, try to start it kills the battery and cluster all needles shot to max and car will shut off while idle.

Have you tested the battery and alternator to be sure they are both functioning properly?

Does the starter/solenoid seem to function properly?
