Hey all... My battery keeps dying... The battery that came with the car died a week or two after i got it; i had a smaller battery; i used that for a while till i got the original charged. I concluded that the alarm system sitting for a few weeks caused the first battery to die. Well, I replaced the wiring on the car, and took out the alarm system, and the battery seems to still die. It's been twice now. I even replaced the alternator cause i upgraded the sound system. The first time i ran the stereo without the new alternator. It is a 600 watt amp with a sub, it is a 120 or 130 amp 3g alternator i forget which.
I also replaced the cables that connected the engine ground, the starter relay and the alternator. What i did notice is that the + post on the battery has become black and has also made the the cable head black as well.
I drive the car weekly, usually on thursday night, friday, and the weekend then it sits in the garage till the Thursday after. This week I came on wed. I started the car , backed it out of the garage; left the door open for like a minute or two to put my stuff in. When I tried to start it the battery was dead, I was able to jump it. Drove it around and it was fine. Then today it was fine it started up right away, until i came home, i turned off the car in order to move a car blocking my driveway, I went to start the stang again... the battery was dead.... I tried to jump it, no luck... What could be wrong?
It clicks once or turns over ever so slightly
