    you are going to have to check a couple of things. When you get the battery charged up enough to start, you need to see the voltage at the battey. Running, it should climb to 14 plus volts if charging properly. If charging, then you need to remove the negitive cable from the battery, put a test light in series, if it glows bright, you have a draw in the system. Pull fuses until light goes out. Just did one that the gps mount shorted and drained battery overnight.
