Of course, you should have the electrical system tested in case it isn't the battery. BTW, have you added anything to your car that might draw current when the car is off, like an alarm system?

Replying to: kwaklinus (Aug 17, 2009 9:12 pm) It was apparently caused by the XM receiver that I had plugged into the auxiliary outlet. It's no longer a problem since I canceled XM but kept Sirius. Replies to this message: akirby (Aug 18, 2009 7:25 pm)
