Update: something is still draining battery. Brand new battery stayed charged, but 15 hours of sitting in yard and so dead that even the temp gauge and milage wouldnt even showm im getting the dreaded "flashing lights click noise" at very low voltage on battery. All i have right now is a 1.5amp charger hooked up hoping to charge enough to carry back to where i bought it. As soon as i hooked up the battery charger, it started doing the clicking/flash noises for about 5 minutes then stopped.

any other potential ideas. Fuse 9 has been removed for days before battery replacement
