Hi I have just bought my grand daughter a 1996 VS commodore for her first car having problems with the battery seems to go dead all the time bought a new one but goes dead after a day can anyone help me with this problem ohh has a new alternator would appreciate any help
check that the light in the boot is turning off. had a mate with a similar issue and one day I opened his boot and felt the lamp and it was really warm which indicated that it was not turning off. Replaced the switch and it never went flat again.
It will be a process of elimination to find the culprit be it lights not turning off, alternator not charging it properly, or wires that have rubbed thru and are earthing to the chassis. Use a multimeter and take out fuses one at a time. If any one circuit is draining more than the rest then you have your problem and know where to start to fix it.
