battery problems?
alright so when i first bought my alero and installed my sony head unit i was told at futureshop that i had to buy a 150$wiring harness to connect the stock sterio to the original, being the cheap a$$ i am i just bought a standard harness and wired it up. as u probably know u have to wire the 12v constant with the accessory wire for it to work but it then stays on all the time even without the key in. so i ended up putting a toggle switch on the accessory to turn it off manualy. this seems to have done the job but before i put the switch in my battery died a coupple times and now it seems every time i start the car the battery feels as though its almost ready to die but iv been able to get the car to start every time. i know that a bad battery wont be able to hold its charge but is it possible that it could drain overnight etc.. or is it more likely that somthing else is draining the battery.
B.T.W sorry for writing long questions i just like to lay out all the facts X-D
