1996 Johnson 130 on a four winns horizon 170. Battery goes dead if it is left hooked up for more than a week. Running boat doesn't seem to charge it much, but i suspect that is because it is big-time drained. Suspicion confirmed by hooking it up to a charger and running it all night anf batt is still only at 70%.
I am wondering if there is anything in the engine system that may be putting a small load on the batt and draining it. Obviously, there is the entire remainder of the boat to worry about, but I am wondering specifically about the engine electronics, etc.
Anyone have any ideas to troubleshoot to see if there is a dead short somewhere draining her down?
