My pulsar seems to lose power everytime i park it from a journey that spans as little as 1km. Inswith off the engine and immediately try to start it, the battery does not crank the starter. I have to jump start the vehicle everytime. I have checked if the radio is left on or whether there is a light flickering in the boot. All these options are switched off.
Please assist with some solutions on possible cause.

Check the battery terminals and ensure they are clean and tight.
Have the alternator charging tested.
