I've read some of the related posts but could find the key to my problem. Battery not staying charged. Started having charging issues over the summer. Battery was less than a year old, but was having to put the trickle charger on it but it kept running down. I figured it had to be the alternator. Replaced with new. Charged battery up but dead again in 3 days. Replaced battery (tech said old one was still good). Took old and new alternators to electrical shop and both checked out good. Guess I have a spare now. I even took the fuse out for the radio thinking it might be draining the battery - not. Replaced both Negative and positive cables with upgraded 2ga cables. Wire brushed all connection points and bolted negative cable to the frame (bare metal) and sprayed all connections with battery connector protection spray. Had to jump it to use and ended up stranded in the woods with it and get rescued by the neighbor last night. Ugh. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
