Default my battery dies after 1 day without use.

I recently did a B16 swap on a 90dx and when i turn on the engine for more thatn 2 days the battery dies. i moved the battery to the back. thats probably all i have done with electrical, i also noticed the starter solenoid no engaging the other day when it i fired it, i only hear a the starter motor moving but no the engaging with the flywheel,.
i dont have my stereo on whatsoever, the battery is brand new Exide orbital.
any suggestions?

sounds like your alternator isnt charging and/or you have a draw, try doing a parasitic load test, and check and see if the alternator is charging by taking a meter and seeing if the alternator is putting out 12 volts

i think the alternator works because it charges the battery when i leave it on, the only electrical modifications are cd player amp and battery mounted on the back.
i can turn back on after a jump start.

I disconected the L sensors on the doors you guys think that drains my battery even though i dont have a dome light working?
