something is draining my battery...
I have a 2001 Ranger with only 140k miles. Its in great shape but something is draining my battery when its parked for more than a couple of days.
I will take it to my local O'Reilly Auto later today and have them test the alternator and battery. (The battery is new.) Its on a charger right now....
is it possible that something is draining the battery after I shut it off? If so, how do I find it?
Thank you for taking the time to read my post and reply!

I normally use an amp measuring device and start pulling fuses to see where the current draw is coming from. Aftermarket alarm systems, spliced in trailer lights/brake, stereo systems, etc like to draw current. But failed factory components or wiring can be the issue also. Happy hunting.
