94 axima will not jump start, sometimes
I have had the battery and alternator tested and all is good but the test indicated that something is draining the battery. Every few days the car will randomly not start and then the car will not start even with a jump,most of the time but not all the time.

disconnect the negative battery terminal, and get a DVOM or amp reader. with the negative battery terminal still disconnected, put one test lead on the terminal, and one on battery negative. car not running, all doors shut, etc
maximum drain can be 50 milliamps, anything more means you have a parasitic draw. if you do have an excess draw, keep the amp meter where it is. start pulling your fuses one by one, when you pull a fuse and you see the amp meter read significantly lower, you know where the problem area is. if you have anything aftermarket, disconnect it first and see if the reading goes down
