What can cause battery to drain on a 1996 trans sport se?
A dead cell in the battery will cause the battery to loose it's charge overnight. The battery must be replaced if this is the case. Also, any light that is on will drain the battery. A stuck relay will also drain it. Disconnect the negative cable at night in the dark and if you see a spark of any size then something is on. You will see a very tiny spark which is normal but look for a spark that show a large power draw.

What will cause battery power drain on a 1997 Chevy Blazer S10 LT 4x4?
This requires a very basic trouble shoot:As you have not specified a period that the battery goes dead I will speak generally.Charge and then disconnect the battery for the usual amount of time it takes to go dead. If the battery is dead the battery is faulty.You need a way to measure draw. 100 Milli amps is considered normal. (1/10 of an amp)An ammeter works best but it will need to handle 50 amps or more and accurate to 10 Milli amp.A test light will work for large fast draws.Start by measuring your draw, A fast or large draw will cause a test light wired between the positive battery terminal and positive cable.Start removing the fuses and see when the draw reduces or goes away. What was it powering?Good Luck
