I will add to JDEMs fine comments. .Once you find out it has the excess drain by using a cheap amp meter, or a plain old test light will also work pretty well, between the Positive post and the terminal clamp that you disconnected, if the draw shows a very dim glow that is not visible in daylight, or less than 100ma, it might be OK. If it shows more, or lights brightly, there is a heavy draw (the meter should be set to at least 10 amps to begin with, then reduced in setting till it indicates well) leave the meter or test light connected, and begin by looking for lights left on. If none, start pulling fuses (there may be more than one location for them both under the hood, and under the dash) and watching the meter/light. Reinstall fuses each time to avoid mismatching amp ratings! When fuse pulling is finished, and no joy, Disconnect the alternator plug from the side of the alternator. If still no joy, disconnect the main (big) wire at the alternator. If it goes out with the alternator out of the circuit. Replace it. Jim
