Which one is the fuel pump fuse?
Last night I was able to rule out the kenwood amplifier cable and it's capacitor. I move all the positive battery cables to an isolator switch.
So to clarify things. I replaced the battery 2 weeks ago. I noticed the car was dying if not driven for 2 days. No change in gadget add ons since 2014.And 3 days ago driving home the car s electric power turned of an on by itself on two occasions. Engine runningI checked the terminals they seemed ok. I put the trinkle charge on it. Next morning it wouldn't start. I think it was a bad battery connection. Because as I mentioned all the power went off. The battery, alternator tested fine. The only visual problem were a burned out fuse on the module, week souter on the module and a stripped negative battery terminal. I started by getting the Optima Red top out and trying another. Then the module and last the terminals, now it won't turn off.
This changes everything.
Please disregard all advice previous.
It is possible for any component to go bad at any point in time and start causing a draw on the battery. We can only help you with Crossfire things since we do not know the add ons nor how they were installed.
If this were my car I would hook everything up as was when the symptoms started then look for the device causing a draw on the battery when the car is just sitting there. Do you know your way around a volt ohm amp meter? You have a monster of a diagnosis ahead of you. Work through it one step at a time. Throwing hand grenade solutions (IE: let me try this fix, then that fix, then another fix) at the car will only compound the problem until you know the exact cause.
