An ammeter must be connected in parallel to the circuit. If you do not understand the difference between parallel and series connection then you should leave it to a competent mechanic/electrician.

What causes an unusually discharging car battery?

Parasitic voltage drain. Are you leaving something like an inverter plugged in? If you installed a new car stereo or amp for example and connected to a power source that is "hot" all the time, whatever is on that line will drain the battery all the time.


How do you test for battery drain in a car?

By removing the ground wire from the battery and putting an amp meter in series between the battery and wire and measure the amp draw after sometimes 15 minutes.
