One other thing for an odd set of circumstances, are the fuses. Sometimes you have Chinese fuses, cheap unreliable alloy's, and they might corrode at the fuse ends inside the fuse holder.
If you have something eating your ground connections, you may have too much current flow at the Ground, or somewhere else in the system, another ground is corroded to death.

Nah, it's just a matter of moisture getting in there over time and doing its nasty work.

ok well good news and bad news lol
The good news
OK Franklin2 thanky ou very very much that #19 fuse 10amp in the dash was the problem all along even though it only says intrement cluster and airbag module in the book.
the person who owned the truck before me had a wire shoved in that spot to provide power to a seft of aftermarket fog lights. The fuse was good but after i rewired the lights properly and took the wire from out of the fuse spot the fuse no longer made contact and for some reason up untill now my battery was fine lol
i would like to thank everyone who had an opinion or a suggestion to help me out and for putting up with my many post about this problem
Thanks a million every one !!!!!
