Hey guys, I could use some help. My 305 died at a red light. Got it home and charged the battery fired right up, 5 minutes later it was dead as a door nail. Charged it again. Then the same thing happened. Bought a new battery charged it then same thing happened. This has me stumped. Not sure what is draining the battery. I am planning on checking the wiring from front to make hopefully I can find a short and that will be the solution. Anyone else encounter this type of challenge. Thanks for your support ~Eric

Seems as though my problem is solved. Battery holding a charge like it should.

Thanks for all your help.

I am attaching a pic of the busted rectifier.
