battery problems associated with push button start?

[Catwoman28]

hi, I have a 2000 Honda Civic SI. I had Audio Plus install a push button start 4 years ago where the car lighter was and since then I noticed that my battery dies all the time. For example, if I don't drive the car for 2 days, by the 3rd day the battery is dead. I keep replacing with new batteries so I know that isn't the problem...do you think the push button start is draining the battery? If not, what do you think is the problem.

Thanks.

pretty safe bet to say that..or a short somewhere..are there any lights that stay on while the car is parked for 3-4 days. Can you have the push button bypassed for a week to key start to see if that is in fact the problem?

Do you have to use the key to use the push start.
