I have a 1999 Dodge caravan 3.0 liter.with more than 100,000 miles. I am lately having problem of battery draining after the car had been park overnight or for several days causing me to charge battery to start it. After the car started and warm-up, I have no problem restarting the car. I want to know which circuit inthe car is draning the battery after the car is park for a long time with the engine off. I will appreciate it very much if anybody could give some advice to solve this problem.

Get a test light and disconnect the positive battery cable put test light between the disconnected cable and battery positive post. Is the test light On? if so start removing fuses one by one, relay/circuit breaker/connector the one that turns of the test light is the problem circuit.
