try and find any fuseable links in you wiring harness some times when you ground out a wire it sends out a power surge that will make a fuseable link to draw power even when your car is off. you could even take the battery cables off you battery when the car is running if it dies the charging problem is with your altanator or relays. just a guess hope it helps RK
Something is shorted to ground.
yes
depends on a lot of things........is your battery shorted out or is it just dead?
Cause it is shorted out ,replace it.
Overcharge, often due to a shorted cell.
If a battery is "shorted", meaning that its terminals are connected together through a low resistance, high current flows in the connection and the battery becomes discharged very soon. It makes no difference whether any part of the battery is connected to ground.
either something shorted in the computer when re-connecting, or your grammar implies that you are trying to start it with no battery...which obviously would mean you should first re-connect the battery
it gets shorted because distilled water contains some of the chemicals which allow conduction
It could blow up the battery.
When a battery is short-circuited the resistance turns out to be zero and a large current flows.
Give it a bath. It'll be shorted out, and it will be squeaky clean.
