what can cause the battery to drain so quickly?
What is your question?
I have a 1999 Toyota Camry with a 2.2L v6 I have replaced the alternator and battery both I have replaced twice now but the first time i replaced the battery in had a lot of corrosion on it and then I replace the terminals for the battery to see if that was the problem and the battery is still going dead. I have even replaced the fuse for the alternator. I have to either have someone jump it or but it on the battery charger. I get it started after a while on the charger and then If I get it started and let it run for a while it takes it about 10 minute then it dies and i try to start it again no click or anything not even a open door ding. but when i drive it the battery light flashes at you. I have looked and tested all the fuses and cant find where its draining the battery from.

sounds like a bad new/reman alternator right out of the box(seen many times) or a Parasitic Battery Drain. if you have a volt meter,you can check the battery and the alternator yourself,but the battery MUST have a full charge on it before testing them.with a fully charged battery testing at the battery terminals with engine off,voltage should be around 12.6 volts,now start the engine,testing at the battery terminals again,voltage should be around 14.2 volts VDC. the 2.2L is a 4 cylinder engine and the 3.0L is a 6 cylinder engine,I have the same car. post results.
