Ok to explain better what’s happening. The biggest problems are that the starter that was just replaced on july 5th, sometimes it will start fine others not so much. Sometimes I have to try multiple times especially if I have just drove it anywhere. And the alternator blew at the beginning of this week. We replaced it with a used one from an auto wrecker five minutes later it started smoking. So they replaced it with another one it worked for a day and a half before it started smoking today. Yesterday I took it into Canadian tire to fix brakes and check the wiring for the starter and the alternator because the “new alternator” was humming, so obviously it was breaking. They told us that it was a loose connection to the starter that’s why the starting problems, I ran it to the store and back today and the alternator went. Same issue it started smoking. I can’t see it being three bad alternators in a row. And we don’t know where the loose connection could be , but we did tighten all the wiring. Clearly Canadian tire didn’t actually fix the starting problem. But after we did tighten up the starter wires it started great like 9 times in a row shutting it off and trying again a bit later not moving it because we knew bad alternator. But then when I took it to the store to start it took three tries. I could get another alternator from the auto wreckers because Canadian tire just said it was the alternator. But I feel like a new one would probably be better. But I don’t want to buy a new one then have to replace it too.

sometimes it cranks easily, sometimes it’s slow, sometimes it’s nothing, sometimes it clicks. But eventually it would start until the alternator problems.

So we took it to the mechanic he has had it since Tuesday. He replaced the alternator, then the stripped starter bolt and the wiring harness. He had it running then it stalled and he hasn’t been able to get it running again. It won’t crank over just clicks.

The mechanic can’t find what’s draining the battery
