Happened to my Mustang, drained over night. Turned out to be the alternator as well.

Replace the battery. Once a battery has been drained dead it will never hold a charge right.

the first time that the battery drained. i replaced the battery. so it was brand new like two days ago. i hope its only the alternator

the funny thing is that it started up this morning normal and i got to work and everything ok. i went back outside to go do something and now the car wont start.

I feel your pain man. I plug my car into the wall whenever it's parked. One of those Autometer battery maintainers. My car would go dead in like 3 days. It would slowly drain it day by day. I never figured it out and still don't know to this day what the problem is. So if anyone has any ideas.....i'd like to hear them too.

Hook a Fluke, or any DVOM in series with the battery and read the Amps that the bat. is loosing when the car is just sitting cold. At that point start pulling fuses untill you find the circut that is causing the parasidic drain to your battery and fix the problem. When the correct fuse is pulled the drain will go away, at that point get a wiring diagram for that circut and chace the wires.

Good luck,
