start to drain the battery from jumping the car?

Now my starter drains my battery..

 

I would say your battery is shot. Have it tested. Been my experience, once you start jumping a Bat. it wont last long after....unless you needed a jump because of leaving lights or acc. on. Or the Altenator isnt charging..Otherwise you should never require a jump.

 

i agree there is nothing wrong wth your starter. don't you think there's a reason you had to jump the battery? like maybe the battery is shot?

 

Well here is the story.....

I had a battery drain for the longest time figure it was the alternator. Changed it. Everything is fine cars stays power for a week.

I few weeks ago i left my lights on and there was not enough juice to start it. so i jumped it and now my car is draining again. I check the alt and it is not draining the battery.

So I figured it was the starter cause i heard they can drain..


But also the battery was new in like april but i have jumped it at least 10 times if not more. Can that affect a Battery?

If i change the battery up and it drain with nothing connected it is bad right?

 

the starter will be either on, turning the engine over, or off. Theres nothing inthe starter that can really drain a battery. As long as the solenoid doesnt have power, the plunger will be retracted and the circuit cut. Is their anythign else in the car that draws power? Like aftermarket stareo equipment?

Oh, if the battery looses its charge after a short period of time with nothing connected to it then its bad.

 

try disconnecting the battery cables and see if it stays charged. you may have something draining the battery.

 

Ive bought bad "new parts" too many times to mention. Have the Bat. Tested. Its free at most parts stores.
