I have a draw what to do??

[optimus234 at hotmail.com (Kevin S)]

Im no good at wiring. I have a bad current flow the battery goes dead over 
night. I know I have some loose wires because the wiring harnesses are from 
different scirocco's put together. Everything works that I want to work in 
the car. I have some loose wires not sure what they are for.

I was hoping I could take out these wires and that it would get ride of the 
current flow?
What is the best way of going about this?

Should I go after all my ground wires and the ones that are useless just get 
rid of?? Would they be creating the draw??

Again I don't really understand wiring, I guess my mind just has a hard time 
understanding it.
