Wasn't sure where to post this, this seemed like the appropriate area. My battery recently went dead (turn out my alternator which decided to run its course. So I replaced the alternator, changed the battery, it went dead, so I changed back to my old battery (which I previously charged). It started up fine (this was yesterday) today I jumped in the car and it didn't start up as healthy as it normally would. Went to a friends, we had the doors open (interior light on) spraying some old crc in the joints, went to start her up and bang the battery's dead. It's really gotten to me know. My friends dad whom is a mechanic reckons my power wire to my amp is the problem, I can't see how so considering I've ran the same thing in my unregistered car that never left the back yard, if that's the problem how do I wire the damn thing up so it doesn't drain my battery, I'm not made of money and don't plan to buy a new battery every 2 days. He said to cut the wire and put some sort of switch in to toggle when the amp gets power, no idea how to do it or it could even be done. I just wanted people's thoughts/opinions. I don't really require the car this week, though I can't have this happening next week when I have school. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
