My 300tdi has new altenator and battery both checked out by AA but battery keeps draining over night no interior lights stuck on radio off any suggestions

You need to have a shop do a baterry voltage drop test on each fused circuit to isolate the cicuit and then to the component causing the drain.

What can be the cause of my baterry easily drained or loss of power even though is a newly replaced baterry in my 93 honda accord lx two door..They even check my alternator and they found nothing wrong...

A mechanic would disconnect the battery and check each circuit for a voltage drain by disconnecting the fuses and breakers. Anything with a relay or way to use electricity such as a light bulb or switch can cause a small short to ground or voltage drain.

Dead battery after 24 hrs wont hold the charge! baterry is new

Find the battery drain. Disconnect negative cable from battery. Place test light between pattery negative post and disconnected negative cable. If light is bright while no accessories are on, there is a drain. While keeping the test light in this configuration, pull each fuse out and replace on at a time while watching test light. If the light dims or goes out when a particular fuse is out, that identifies which circuit has the drain. Use that information to track down what is on or draining.

My car

to truly eliminate the alternator you have to disconnect from the wires over night to see if battery is still drained good chance that alternator is the cause.you also can put a test light in between the battery and the ground cable (negative)as you disconnect the alternator you should see a difference in the test light. the bulb will dim down if alternator is draining the power.
