I have had a parasitic battery drain for as long as I had the truck. (One year) The battery will die after not driving it for about a day. Now it is getting annoying. The last owner replaced the alternator in the last year and I got a free new battery under his warranty in December. My friend owned it before me and he mostly took it to Pep Boys and I have every receipt. Brought it to them 3 times so far asking them to charge the battery since it was under warranty. Last weekend when I went they said to leave it for them to do a diagnostic test to see where the problem was. I was told fuse #22 on the inside fuse box was the draw and not turning off after I shut off the engine.
They said they wouldn't be able to do the work and to go to an electrical shop. Today went to two shops, the first was an a/c place that I trusted and have been to before. The said they are backed up fixing air conditioners and to try an guy next door. The next guy I went to said it may of may not be the junction box. He said it would be a gamble to fix it because he could replace the whole box and I would still have the problem. He said go to the dealership where a new box will be $300 and they have a better chance of fixing it the first time.
Can someone please help?
