Its an S4C. The charge on the battery (which is new) lasts for only about 8 hours after which time it is completely flat. Any ideas ?

The simple way to check where the current is going is to put a 12volt bulb on the pos side of the battery and connect the poss leads from the battery to the other wire on the bulb,if current is running the bulb will be on. leave that connected and start to unplug things and when the light goes out that is the circuit that is drawing the current. I would start by disconnecting the alternator and then the relays in the fuse box as they are the most likely problem areas. Hope this is off help.
