Default looking at another disco weird problem...

Its a 2000 disco and has a few cosmetic flaws. But the weird thing is every time you kill it the battery drains to dead. Its a good battery and from looking in it I've noticed there is a short somewhere. When you use the driver seat controls to move the top half back and fourth,when you get to a certain point back all the light flicker and click as does the dash and radio...any thoughts

Bad ground.
Leave the truck parked outside away from buildings and other cars until you figure it out, it could totally short out and catch fire at anytime.

He is serious very serious we all have seen what could happen and how fast. This is not to scare the s**t out of you but more warn you and possibly save your home & family. You need to start checking over all wiring and get this solved asap. If you cant find anything you could take it to the shop but electrical gremlins can cost a lot of cash so its best if you can isolate the problem.
