91 240sx my battery was drained out for some odd reason i think a wire is draining my battery but here goes the story...
i dont drive my car at all really till drift events and so one day i went to go check up on my car and i noticed the battery was dead and i was wondering what was going on. so i jumped the car with some cables and started up fine...then i left it that day and the next day checked it again and the battery was dead again....so i switched to another battery and it started fine again cluster working and radio working...then the next day the horn was going off so my momo horn button was touching a ground so i unplugged the horns and later i thought bout the horns are still on just that i unplugged the hornsound thingies(was kinda in a rush)....so later on the next day the battery was dead "again"...so i jumped it again and it stayed on again so i just let it run for bout 15-20 mins... and today i just checked it the battery was dead and i jumped it again it jumped and turned over slowly but then my cluster and radio wasnt working just the motor running smooth....so i took off the positive cord from the battery and the car died....i jumped it again leaving the jumpers on and it ran for a while and i restarted it up and it just tick tick tick but during when i started it up the cluster and the electricals werent working ....so i know my alternators bad now but i wonder if something else was draining the battery....i stuck on my stock steering wheel back on and also i checked all my fuses and everything was fine...i have a wire connecting to the battery thats for my electrical fan which is on a switch and my headlight wires connected to the battery and the positive wire connected to my battery from the alternator...so what do you guys think? anything happen like this yet to you guys?....remember my cluster and radio's dont turn on when i jump the car so what do you guys think....i havent had this problem before so....i need some input from my zilvia buddies....
