ok, i know i have made a post a while back on this but i thought i fixed it, but i didnt...
i need some help something keeps drainning my battery in my 92 hatch, so i started gutting it out to take out the not needed speeker and random wires the previous owner ghetto rigged throughout my car. but it still died, as i was driving on the highway, it seemed like my Maf started to give out b4 the battery died, so idk if its the wiring in the KA or what plz help me.... ive had to get 3 new batteries... and i really wana be able to drive her without worying about her dieing....
thanks TR

did you go to different places to get it checked?
I've had auto zone tell me it was good, but then walk across the street and have advance tell me it was total crap.
how far are you driving before the battery dies?
Driving on the highway seems to imply that you put a couple of miles on it before it died. That would lead me to believe that the alternator is putting out power but on the far low side. Which, could still ready good to a lot of the test machines. Test machines don't test it under load either. So the alternator could read a lot better on their machine then it really is, trying to power everything in the car and charge the battery.
it seemed like the maf tweaked because the voltage dropped below 11 volts (I think that is the magic number) basically, the ECU didn't have enough power flowing through all of the circuits to figure how how much resistance there really was for the sensors so it didn't know what to do. Simply put.
