Your alternator or regulator could be bad. A parts store or garage can cheack them for you, probably for free.

- Take off the Negative battery terminal & put a Volt meter black lead on battery & red to loose cable. Do U get a reading??? Yes, then something is drawing power when it shouldn't be killing the battery. It could be bad "Blocking Diodes in Reg. or Alt", or something else. Start removing wires off the Pos. terminal until the meter no longer shows power loss. The problem will be in the last wire that "Broke the Circuit". John
