...My old caddy had electrical gremlins...I feel for ya man.That thing would decide to not even turn over on cold or humid days and the carburator always bogged out on hot days.That and there was some serious draw on the battery.
...Still never figured it out
Anyway, heres the old' yankee inginuity way to test for (most) shorts.
Go to your fuse box at night,and one at a time pull fuses. as you pull them and put them back in,look to see if it sparks.If it sparks, theres a short somewhere on that circuit.
It works best at night so you can see the spark easier.In some cases theres a short that wont necicarrily blow a fuse...
This may have been outruled already(Or mabey this new technowladgie thing doesnt even have one) but have you tested the voltage regulator?

Im stumped otherwise...Best of luck
