Hey, I have a 2003 dodge ram basic quad cab 5spd manual. She drives amazing, nevertheless, nearly every morning I have to jump start it (Booster Battery) because the battery is too low. When I turn the key in its locked position, all the lights turn of, radio of, even mileage monitor turns of. But there must be something that stays on. The battery is good and the alternator works fine.

I think it could be the ignition switch as I can remove the key when I am driving and it will not shut off.

If someone could give me some pointers on what to check. That would be great.

P.S. Tomorrow I will start removing fuses to find out what is staying on (using a multi tester)

 

Welcome to DF

I was going to recommend to use a DVOM to check for a draw. I have seen the glove box light cause a draw, But i don't know if thats the problem you are having. Keep us posted. And you continue to have problems, then i would either move your post to the 3rd Gen Ram section.
