98 Cabrio, battery keeps dying. It is a new one, and the alternator was checked both off and on the car, and checks out OK. Any expert help on what to look for is greatly appreciated!! If you fully charge the battery, it drives OK for a while, then craps out with a dead battery. Is there a hidden fuse or link or something I should be looking for? THANKS

you have a drain somewhere.. put a meter on the battery and you will see the drain on the battery.. then go to the fuse box and pull fuse by fuse until the drain stops.. then see which fuse and where the problem resides...and go from there.. good luck
