Battery running down easily?

[Regency]

Know what you mean but is the truck never going to be the same?

Do you have any aftermarket equipment installed? When operating accessories, is the key in the ON position but with the engine off? If so, this may contribute to draining the batter, which could result in a low battery state of charge and difficulty cranking the engine. If you use accessories with the engine off, turn the key to the ACC position instead of the ON position.

Another possibility is a loose or corroded connection. These are only suggestions, they are not meant as a diagnosis. If this is a recurring issue, I encourage you to have the vehicle inspected by a certified technician.

Please keep us posted.

No, aftermarket anything. And when she first done it when it was new it was in the ON position and drained that battery, and I can understand that. This has been into the dealer at least twice for this and they never found a problem. I've had it in ACC positon and it killed the batter a few times before, but this time I had nothing on except the dome lights and it came close to killing the battery. I didn't even have the key in the ignition switch. It's done this from new.
