Something is drawing juice from the battery.I installed a new battery and still,when it sits for a few days it dies.How do I find the problem?

 

What kind of vehicle are we talking about? It could be a bunch of things do you have a meter or test light?

 

WeldGod , It is a 85 Riviera. I have a a meter,this car has every gadget.I already had to hook up a switch to stop the ELC from going on and off all night(slight leak in the lines somewhere)

 

Matt, here is a internal link to another post with the same problem as yours, along with the same procedure to isolate the cause.

It explains how to use a test light while pulling fuses one at a time.

 

There is a fairly easy way to diagnose this. Remove 1 battery terminal and either put a digital amp meter in series, or place a 12V test light in series with the removed battery wire. Remove 1 fuse at a time until the light goes out or the amp meter drops off. That will isolate it to which circuit it is. Personally I would remove the plug from the alternator over night and see if the battery is dead the next day...have seen this before.

 

Make sure you disable the door jam switch and the hood light before you attempt that. You'll never find it if you don't.
