1999 Kia Sephia has an electrical drain that I cannot locate.

I have a 1999 Kia Sephia that has an electrical drain somewhere on the car that I can not find. I checked the battery, alternator and the starter, all are fine. I go to start the car and lights do not even come on. I took it to a mechanic that told me to keep using it everyday or it would die. Due to other problems with the car I couldn't, now the car is dead. I am wondering if it isn't the ignition itself.

    until the problem is found,u can unplug a batt. cable when car is parked,it will keep batt.from drainning,every time batt. drains it shorthens batt.life.your problem can just be a light that stays on like trunk light,underhood light,inside car lights,was there something new install in car like radio,amp.before this started?

Trying to locate the fluid fill plug on a 1999 Kia Sephia with manual transmission. Is there a picture or diagram I can look at?

there are two places under on the top of the transmission there is a small sover that you have to pull off with pliers just put a little in there its just to start lubrication then under the transmission there are two bolts the higher one is the fill and the lower one is the drain make sure that you drain what is left before filling with new. i reccomend penzoil manual transmission fluid.
