For some reason my celica always seems to drain my battery when I park it and dont use it overnight. After a jump it fires right up and have no further issues. What I have done when its completely dead I jump start it, drive it for like an hour and let the alternator charge the battery up. When I go to park it overnight, I remove the main 60A fuse in the engine bay and leave it like that. The next day It fires right up no problems, but if I leave the fuse in place next morning, starter just starts clikkkin, cant even crank the car. I have looked for something thats draining the power but cant find anything, I dont even have a stereo in place. Any help appreicated.

get a multi meter and take the neg or positive calbe off and set it to measuare amps, use the multi meter as a jumper between the battery and the pos. or neg. cable. You should see a current draw, now start pulling fuses and when you pull a fuse and the current draw drops, you know that you have a parasitic drain from that specific circuit.
