Battery ?? Sign In

Hello my vechicle is a 1995 Olds Aurora. Everytime I leave anything on such as lights,radio or leave trunk open for a very short time my battery goes dead. I am not sure if it is the battery or alternator and how do I check to find out. Thanks Jewels

Everything starts with a battery test. Have it charged and tested and go from there.
