I drive a 2002 nissan sentra gxe. Recently my battery wiring terminals went bad, so I replaced them and everything started working again for a while. I have recharged my battery and had it and my alternator checked out and everything seems to be ok there. After a few days go by however my car wont start and has no power. I don't have anything still on when i park it, but I do have an amplified stereo connected to the battery, which has been there for about a year and hasn't caused a problem like this before so i don't think that's an issue, but I cant tell what keeps draining all my power? What could be a cause for this?

? You found bad terminals that fixed it for a while guessing it behaved at totally dead?


How have you tested what? Is battery itself dead again or just doesn't respond as if it's connected?


Hey - when you put junk direct to battery it's AYOR for troubles to make good connection let alone some aftermarket thing no telling how that might be involved so check for a battery drain if you can with a DVOM meter or fix up the connections, fused properly and run thru such that they can't be on unless car is running.


No telling what a bird's nest of junk it looks like at the battery now but just test the post and bet it's fine just too much cheap junk marginally connected there,
