Welcome, Stephen.

Check manufacture date on battery, usually stamped on terminals. If 5yrs just get a new one as ECP often have big discounts available. and then you know you have eliminated that - I spent good money chasing a drain which turned out to be a intermittently failing 9mth old battery. Buy a good make, not a cheap one.

Get a voltmeter on the battery first to see its condition. Make sure the terminals are clean, lubed and tight.
Then take it from there
