Hello Craig.
You could be draining the battery if you have the C connection from the
regulator grounded through the battery selenoid.
When you turn the battery master off, the selenoid is grounded and if
the C wire is connected to ground when battery master is off, you will
drain the battery slowly.
Just make sure that the battery does not get grounded through the
battery selenoid or the C wire.
Do not ask how I know this.
Hope this will help.

I am wondering if any 914 users has starting problems,
I cant start mine without a jump from another battery,
i replaced the
battery, the starting solenoid and the wires and still
have this
problem, the only thing i havent replaced is the
starter but it seems fine when i start it with a
jumper battery attached and restarts fine in flight
and once in awhile it will start with a battery
charger connected all night, im thinking that maybe
the starter solenoid is taking to much juice to
activate it all.

For what it's worth, when I first was attempting to start my 912 it seemed
that the battery didn't have enough juice to get it to turn over very well.
Turned out that I didn't have the engine grounded good enough. Once I added a
ground strap from the engine to the airframe it cranked right up.
