My 2003 mitsubishi eclipse spyder has a battery drain
issue. Battery, cables and alternator all replaced. Fuses
checked. Still it's hit and miss if car will successfully start

battery. What can I check next?  I'll take any help please!

Thank you. I just watched video. VERY informative. I don't have that amp. meter but will find someone who does. For now I think I'll pull radio fuse and have car jumped AGAIN. I'll keep you posted. Thank you. Dianna
