Check your glove box lights, interior compartment lights and make sure they are not staying on. You will need to run a drain test to see how much and where the voltage is being drained.

How do I run a drain test? And I checked all my lights, radio ect. To see if anything was being left on and I did not notice anything?

You need to run a amp meter in line with the battery canble and see what the current draw is. Anything over 10 milliamps is to much. When your doing this pull some fuses and see which drops the drain down. Then you will know where to look
