Default Cap problems

well, my battery was dying a couple months ago and it turned out to be my capacitor that was draining my battery. so i purchased a brand new capacitor (same model) and guess what, the car battery died on me again. now, the first time i was having this problem, i changed the car battery so it is brand new. what could be a solution to my cap problems? bad wiring? thanks guys.

How is your cap wired? Is the remote lead connected to your amp?...Sometimes the auto-shutoff caps like yours have issues...not sure if this helps.

why don't you check the other thread you have going with 40 replies rather than starting a new one.

On a real note, if you can draw up a schematic of how everything is wired I would be happy to answer, but without that drawing I can't help you. I'm 99% certain that your problem is you are either wired wrong or your cap is bad, which should sound familiar from your other thread. If I know how your system is wired then I can tell you if you have a wiring problem and if there is no problem in the hook up then you likely have a bad cap.
