I have a 2004 PT Cruiser with a battery drain issue. It will have a full charge but overnight it will lose about 2 volts. The problem started before I went away for 3 weeks. When I came back there was still about a 10 volt charge. Obviously not enough to turn it over but the lights and all electrical were fairly strong. Original battery was replaced and checked twice, when the drain happened two more times, to be sure it wasn't a faulty battery. When I do get it jumped it starts and runs fine but overnight it loses that 2 volts and I'm back where I started. Any clues?
