WTF, I've replace the alternator and battery, but if I dont drive my car for a few day the battery will be dead again<img border="0" src=smileys/smiley19.gif border="0"> I've checked all the little light here and there and NONE of them are on. It's a 1993 GT with about 63,000 miles on it. My previous was an 86 that I got rid of att 155,000 miles and never had such a problem. Anyone experience this or know what might be killing my battery? A buddy thinks it may be my main computer. Trying to avoid the shop I figured I'd try here first. Thanks, Jeff

TRUNK not hood

My wife's corvette did the same thing. As I know nothing about electrical sh#t, took it to an auto electric shop. They traced it to a faulty radio. Even when it was off, it was drawing power. If you don't know how to use a voltmeter, find a buddy who does, or take it to a pro.

<FONT face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size=2>If you have an aftermarket sound system or sub, even when the car is off that still drains the battery. Or there couldbe something wrong with your radio/cd player. If you don't drive it alot it will also drain. I have a good die-hard battery charger at my house and I use it every once and a while to keep up the voltage. This helps alot.</FONT></P>

Thanks for the replies guys. It turns out that it's the alarm causing the barrery to drain. I need to get it fixed or replaced.
