Battery keeps dying?

bought new battery and new alternator. but the battery only keeps a charge for like a day and when i go out to start it the next day it is dead. i already replcaed the new battery once but the second one is doing it also. could it be a short or something else. im not good with electrical problems

it could be drain on the battery too. make sure the dome light is off,and the light for the mirror in the sun visor is off too...ive seen them get stuck on and kills the battery and its a major PITA to try and track down.


good luck

take it to napa or autozone

they can connect to the battery, alt and other things to tell you if there is a drain. and possibly what is causing it.

and last time i checked it was free
