Could the removal of the OEM antenna have caused the drain and recharging error?
Thanks!

My question would be:
Has there been any OTHER modifications or additions to the electrical system? Such as aftermarket stereo, alarm system, fancy under-dash lighting.
And as someone already mentioned, dome light possibly left on?
The antenna being removed would not cause a dead battery.
