Good morning. I have stock 72 bug with about 110,000 miles on it. Depending on weather I don't drive it a lot - maybe once-twice a week. Battery is not that old. Going through records to see when I bought it.
Problem is battery drains down maybe within a week of driving it last so that it won't start. Checked to make sure that I haven't left any lights on like interior light and such. Next thought was to disconnect battery ground from chassis under rear seat and put an ammeter in series and see if I have any current flowing to anything even with ignition switch off. Would that be best diagnostic to run? Next check would be to remove battery and have it load tested at parts store. Any other thoughts would be appreciated.
