Alternator, starter, radio or interior lights. Main four things that draw power for 84's Could also just be a bad battery.

SOURCE: 84 Vette

If it still does it, locate the fuse panel and with the car off, pull a fuse and measure the current draw.  Be careful.  Make sure your meter is on HI AMPS.

SOURCE: taillight lense removal on 84 vette

If I remember you need to remove them from laying on the ground and going in from under the car behind the bumper. Some models did have 2 screws on the front the older ones had to be removed from behind the bumper.

SOURCE: 94 vette won't start,bat good,have org. key,fuses ok,high beam light on lights off,lcd cluster won't light up?

Disconect the battery and ECM for FOUR DAYS then reconect the ECM and BATTERY. Let it sit for another four days without turning anything on. It should start but will run rough for about 200 miles as the ECM relearns the system. I had the same issue and that is what fixed it.

My 1985 vette starts up cold good and no smoke but after warm up it don't want to crank when it does it has black gray smoke for a min what's wrong

not starting when it gets warm could be a starter problem, the amp draw is probably to high for the battery to supply enough power to start. starter draw should be around 150-200 amps. the black gray smoke is too much fuel that isn`t being burnt. if the starter draw is too high then there isn`t enough voltage for the ignition system to fire the plugs properly causing the smoke.

Truck will not keep and charge over night

The battery won't keep a charge or it won't when it is in the truck? Will the battery keep a charge if you put it on the charger and then unplug it overnight, all of this out of the truck. Then in the morning will it start the truck. If not your battery is bad. If it keeps a charge and will start the truck and then it goes dead after several hours, your truck is drawing a load on the battery. You will have to find what has been left on or shorted out.

My 99 vette makes a click sound when I try to start it. It wont start but the battery has a full charge. The hood light and interior lights go out when I turn the ignition key to start but they come back...

Sounds like a dead battery. However, I will tell you that these vehicles are very sensitive to voltage. Try cleaning the battery cables and tightening them properly.

99' Corvette will not start

If it's been sitting for a year without being started, I can almost guarantee the battery is dead. At the very minimum you are going to need to either have that battery charged or replaced. I would replace it if it was me, I'm not sure it will even hold a charge after that length of time unused. If the alternator was working properly before you parked the car, it's probably still ok. Nice car by the way, I had a Torch Red 98 Vette and now drive a 03 Anniversary Red Vette. Good luck.
