Hello, my ford is having a problem of the battery draining when it sits. Ive looked to see if anything is left on i.E. Lights, radio etc. But nothing is on and when it sits, the next day the batteery is dead. I put in new cellinoid and battery and wires but problem still persists any suggestions?

Could be battery case drainage or battery is sulfated and not taking the charge - if not do below
