I have tested the battery and alternater it was fine i also watch all the lights to see if they were draining it but so far nothing i even switched out the battery and it worked for month then the issue came back within a month.

Check the glovebox light & switch.

Check for any metal contacting the battery or any wires that are bare that are contacting any metal things. Also, try checking fuses.

google "diagnose parasitic battery drain" find any of the articles or videos that show how to use a cheap multi-meter to find which fuse serves the device that is draining your battery.

On my 05 odyssey it was the sliding door latch. (There were 2 or 3 other common problems that cause this on teh '95 ody like teh AC relay). Once you know which fuse on your Park Ave you can google to find what is failing and how to circumvent or fix.
