Default Electrical Drain

Overnight my battery runs low, too low to start my car the next morning, unless I start the car in the middle of the night to recharge the battery.

Q. Is there any device I can use, or anywhere I can take the car to have it diagnosed to find out "exactly" what is draining my battery?

The same thing happens if I listen to the radio (have an amp) without the car running.

I have an 1989 Buick LeSabre T-Type which I installed the L67 & 4T65-E from a 1997 SSEi. However, I had this problem prior to the engine swap.

I checked fuses, and none were blown, there are no coins under the seats shorting the electical seats out, or anything like that.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

TuType

Or you can use a voltmeter.
