Parasitic battery drain - please help

[dbazos]

I found my battery draining parked in my garage overnight. Turned out to be a simple fix. Don't leave the key in the ignition. It was turned off but the battery would drain. Pulled the keys out and never had a problem.

I found that one out the hard way too, left my key in and it drained the battery flat. My son was home and said the car was beeping and buzzing.

It may sound weird but a bad electrical ignition switch can cause the battery to drain. Check other threads on faulty ignition switch.
