My son currently passed away and I am trying to sell his 2003 GMC Sierra HD2500 truck. When we go to start it the battery is dead soI replaced the battery and it started right up but the next day when I went to start it the battery was dead. It has various extras on it and I am at my wits end trying to figure it out. Can anyone tell me what is draining battery? It is brand new!

It could be anything that is causing a drain to the battery. You need to check for an electrical draw. Once you find there is a draw, then remove one fuse at a time until the draw stops. At that point, you will at least know what circuit the problem is on.

If you need directions, go to our homepage under the DIY section. It will explain how to check for an electrical draw.
