could be a (master) ground, under the main fuse box, under the hood near the battery.

I had a bad connection there, took one alternator install and a new battery for me to figure it all out. nice huh? it was all rusted under the main fuse box so I cleaned it all up and no more problems.
good luck

could be your alternator draining your juice.. go 2 a garage and have them test it.. They would probably check for free if you acted like you were going have them fix the problem.. then make some stupid excuse up about not having enough money this week and you will bing it back asap.. then do it yourself b/c they diagnosed your problem..
