2000 Neon, Dies when left alone for 12+ hours
Dodge Neon 2000 es 4 cyl.
My Neon can be jumped to start but if it is left alone (not driven, just turning the engine doesn't keep it charged) for more than 12 hours the battery dies. Mechanic doesn't can't find a drain, the starter tests fine, the alternator tests fine, it's a new battery, but it still dies if the car is not driven in a day. The key off draw is only 0.002A and there is nothing after market on the car at all. I can jump the car and it turns over immediately. It doesn't die until it has been left alone for 12 hours or more.
If anyone has any ideas I'd be welcome to hear them. If you need more information let me know.
