battery question.....



Jose,

With the car off, remove the neg side of the battery and then put an
ammeter between the negative post of the battery and the ground wire.
Then start disconnecting fuses/wires that you think could be suspect. 
When the amperage falls to nearly zero (assuming nothing is live when
the car is off, cept for maybe the radio) then you found your faulty
circuit.  This also works with a test light should you have one of
those.
