Before you go replacing anything first verify with a multi meter that the battery isn't getting a charge from the alternator.

Your ammeter should also be reading in the negative.

Ok, I will take some readings. The Ammeter has not worked since day one. Tried reversing the terminals and it made no difference.

I will take some readings and go from there.

This sounds like an opening for the ERA Electrical Wizard (Patrick) to step in with some timely trouble shooting tips.
