Doesn't click...I doubt it fell off...Ill take a look though. It was starting fine last night.

 

Well it was a stupid thing before. Just the black spade type connector on the starter getting loose every now and then. Battery is still draining though. I've just been charging it every day or two as a temporary fix. Could a bad connection at that starter connection cause the battery to drain?

 

yeah, that solenoid connector works loose quite easily.

About your drain, the starter circuit is only complete when you turn the ignition switch to Start - so it's unlikely the loose solenoid wire is the drain culprit. Something else is remaining on, or your battery just won't hold a charge...

 

Wish it was just the battery, but its brand new. I figured while trying to diagnose this stuff, I might as well get a new one. It was a couple years old and I just rather would replace it now than deal with it down the road. Could oil on the starter cause this? I thought maybe but like you said the circuit should only be open with the ignition. (I have what seems to be the classic beehive seal leak)

 

Any chance that you have a late model Alt in your car? If wired incorrectly they will drain the battery.

 

I'll look into it, however the car has ran fine since i bought it (feb of this year) until a week or 2 ago
