Took car to advance auto, tested starting/battery etc system. Found can has a drain on the battery. Went thru fuses looking for drop in amps. Found the ctsy lamp had a drop from 4.45 to, 85 checked the doom lights and found they appeared to be burnt at the socket (very hot) took out bulbs. Put a charger on the battery to ensure a good charge. In doing so the charger would flux between charged and 50 every few seconds, feel some other issue is the problem and not sure how to proceed.

Onur site here got o how to repair then find battery then go to item 9 it will tell you how to check for a draw. There will always be a very slight draw due to the electronics but follow it an dyou'll find it.
