The problem of a battery draining down in your 2015 Chevrolet Equinox can have several causes. A few common causes include:

Alternator: If the alternator is not charging the battery correctly, the battery can drain. You can have the alternator tested to see if it is working correctly.
Electrical components: If there are electrical components that continue to draw power from the battery even when the vehicle is turned off, the battery can drain. Examples of such components are dome lights, radio, or memory seats.
Parasitic drain: A parasitic drain is a small current draw from the battery that occurs even when the vehicle is turned off. Parasitic drains can be caused by a variety of electrical components and can be difficult to locate.
Battery cable connections: If the battery cable connections are loose or corroded, it can result in a poor electrical connection and cause the battery to drain.
Battery: If the battery is old or has low capacity, it can result in a battery drain even if the alternator and other electrical components are functioning properly.
