Do you have any stereo amps hooked up? Or do you have any Hot wires that are NOT connected to anything, but are still hooked to the battery?

My x-g/f went through 3 batteries before we relized it was the 4gauge hot wire we unhooked from the amp but left connected to the battery. After we disconnected it from the battery, never had another problem.

Good luck with it man!

there's tons of things in the car that could be your amp draw. I have seen dome lights kill batteries. It did on mine. I had my door skins off and the pin to shut off the light wasn't being pushed in, which left the light on. But my truck sits for months at a time. DAMN WINTER!!

do you have a volt meter?If so do this...Take your negative battery terminal off.Hook the positive side of the voltmeter to the negative side of the battery and the negative side to the voltmeter to the battery terminal you just took off.THe volt meter should read something.pull fuses out, one at a time until the volt reader reads nothing. the fuse you pulled out that made the volt meter read 0 is were the problem is. (by the way, my wife says you misspelled dying.She also says we're minitruckers and don't have to be smart.)

werd, and make sure you pull the dome light fuse right away or make sure the doors are closed, you can do this with a standard test light too, or shit, any 12volt light bulb will also work.
