I don't do instagram so no picture.

 

I will say that there should be no relay energized with the key out. Over a long weekend the battery would be quite drained. The only thing drawing power would be the electric clock. 

 

So where are these relays?

I pulled the alternator and took them to our local genius starter/alternator rebuild guy so he should be able to see if there's something to be done there.

Electrical is so beyond me, I appreciate all the tips here!!

At best this is a guess. Alternator genius will be glad to rebuild it for you. Did you unplug alternator to see if this shut the relay off. Did it occur to you that it might be the choke heater relay? headlight relay? inhibit relay or ignition relay?

 

Again have you replaced this alternator recently???
