Hi, my battery will take a charge and hold a charge, but it will drain overnight. I have to disconnect the battery so it dosen't drain. I just bought the car and need to replace the tranny, but the battery draining problem seems to be the bigger issue as far as reliablity. I can't figure out what is draining it. Thanks

One thing to do is everynight pull one fuse and see if that stops the drain, if not pull a different one the next day and see.

Either that or you can use a voltage tester and discconect one at a time untill you see the voltage stop draining. The last one pulled is the one thats caused it.
