Skip white distributor wiring

Instead of guessing, actually find out!!!

Take your 12V test lamp, make sure EVERYTHING is off, including any dome, courtesy, trunk lamps, and remove the cig lighter and lay it in the ashtray.

Next, remove your battery ground cable, and put your 12V test lamp in series. Examine it in dim light. If you see ANY glow from the lamp, you have a drain.

IF you do, first check your newly installed ignition, "I don't believe in coincidences"

So find any wire(s) going to a power source, and temporarily remove them.

If this does not affect the problem, remove the fuses one at a time.

If no change, remove the alternator charging wire from the output stud and tape it off.

If you still have a light, you need to look at whatever is left that is "hot" with the key off.

Now, if you do NOT get a light at first, this is GOOD so far as wiring goes, and it just might be....................

Could you have left something on? How is your radio/ stereo wired?

Have the battery tested. Batteries DO fail sometimes, and it does not matter how old they are. They could be brand new and just fail.
