Default SYS light coming on

I have a 1994 LT1 automatic . The problem is my SYS light is coming on . My new battery also is dead every other day .The owners manual says the SYS light means an electrical problem .The question is where in the electrical system is the problem?

Have your alternator tested, it may be on its way out.

you need to pull codes. buzz by an autozone or something like, most can now pull codes for free.

don't listen to their advise, get the code and bring it back to us here.
