    Hello all,

    I have a 2014 Tundra Limited edition. 45,800 miles
    I am currently having an issue with the battery dying very quickly. I have replaced the battery and alternator but still having the same issue, but If I leave my truck sit for 3-4 days then I need to jump it.

    Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.

    I have the same issue. Obviously it's more of a problem when it gets cold. Replaced the battery a couple months ago. It seemed to help, but once we got back to 0 degree nights the problem is back. I thought it might be my aftermarket alarm/remote start draining the battery so I pulled the fuse on it. Battery still died, but maybe it needed to be charged more.

    Is there a way to temporarily turn that off or disconnect it? If you can, try that and see if the battery still drains.
