A draw on the system can be caused by any number of things. Such as a light staying on, a module staying powered up, etc. You would need to test for what is called a parasitic draw on the battery. But, a common problem on the Chevy Equinox is the wiper motor causing the battery to go dead. Check the circuits with the wiper blade motor and see if the power goes away by disconnecting the wiper blade motor. If it does, then check the circuit for power and see where its getting the power and if the circuit is shorted to the ground. Its possible that the circuit was shorted to the ground before causing the wiper system to malfunction. Locate the connection to the other end of the wires and check for battery power. If there is no battery power, then visually look for any melted wires that could lead to a short in Your wiper system.

A common problem on the equinox is a rear wiper motor causing the battery to go dead, though this can be fixed with after market kits.
