Default 95 Accord DX electrical issue...

Somewhere in the car there must be current being drawn from the battery during the time its not being driven. Only problem i cant figure out where.

The battery is only one month old and it seems like it will only happen if it hasnt been driven after a few days..

A few things i think it may be that were put in after honda were.. The headunit, radar detector, or alarm..

everything else is pretty much stock and untouched. Im gonna try poppping out these fuses powering these things and see if it works but do you guys have any idea what it may be???

Thanks in advance..

another problem... The door locks dont work by using the switch.. but will work off the alarm....wtf!?

Checked the fuse and its good... Plus im hearing a noise coming from the driver door, like a screetching noise when I lock it. When i unlock it its cool..

This car is cursed...

Have you had the battery tested after charging it so we know we have a full deck here?
Well here is a method to get started;grab up your handy dandy test light, unhook the battery negative, clip one end of the test light to the cable and clamp the test light to the battery terminal [vise grips]. Normally the light should just glow dimly from the ECU and radio back up amp draw.
If the test light is bright, start pulling fuses/aftermarket stuff, until you track down the circuit that has the draw on it. Then we can help you better and then you can have some info to start looking at schematics and make better guesses what the real problem is.
