I have a 1983 dodge ramcharger. I have put a new battery and 2 new alternators on. Some thing is killing my battery. Could it be the voltage regulator?

I don't have a computer and my radio is on a toggle switch. Does this matter?

I have a 1985 Ramcharger that had a continual draw and I could not keep the battery charged. I used and ammeter and ended up finding a 9 volt battery under the dash behind the glove box that was corroded and shorting out between the positve and negative. The 9 volt battery was inside a small plastic box. I don't know what the battery is for, and I ended up removing it.
