[QUOTE="oscar, post: 168869, member: 2757"] did you install the amp etc yourself, and did you crimp or solder any connections at all? it sounds like you've got a parasitic draw somewhere. i've got a very bad one with my DRL's which i need to remove and rectify, if i sit for 30 minutes with my stereo on ... the car won't start and i get the exact same problem as you > bump start it! so the problems going to be down to the wiring that you done :) something is drawing amperage from the battery, a multimeter is going to be your only friend in this instance. for what it's worth, it's actually good for your battery to constantly be discharged and recharged so you're not doing any harm to it. once your battery reaches a certain voltage your ECU will not allow the car to start to protect itself from self destruction. i believe it's something around 12.2 Volts where the cut off point is [/QUOTE]
