if my car sits for 24 hours it drains the battery,locks lock themselves
What is your question?
I have a new battery but if I don't start the car within 24 hours it is dead and starts with a jump. the car locks itself so could this be draining battery? Could I pull out a fuse to fix this problem? I do not leave any lights on, etc. I read someone pulls out the power connector fuse and that worked for them, should I try that? is there a power door lock fuse? Going nuts jumping the battery 3-4 times a week... It was only 15 hours the other day and I needed a jump

Yes if one of the lock switches is acting up and constantly trying to lock the doors you will end up with a dead battery. Check your owners manual, it will tell you what fuse protects that circuit, the problem is that it probably controls more than just the door locks so you are going to lose some other functions too. If you can pull the switches for the locks you could unplug them to see if that makes the symptom go away.
I didn't see in the manual a specific fuse labeled for the door locks but read someone else fixed similar problem by pulling out the power connector fuse, like you said that stopped the radio, clock too but going to try it so don't have to keep jumping the battery, thanks.
would I have to bring that to a dealer, not much cash, could I buy a tool to do this? thanks
you need equip that can be costly,call around and ask for prices to diag a electrical draw and spend your money that way instead of buying equip
