Electrical problem
1989 Oldsmobile Cutlass Four Wheel Drive Automatic

My problem is that i have this Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera 1989 that keeps dying on me even when i unplug all the bulbs and the lighter. My brother had the same kind of problem and said his was the sensor, but how am i able to tell without taking it in for a $90 test for what could be a two dollar piece. I thought i fix it taking all the lights out but my battary is almost dead. In fact im scared to drive it even just down the road because it might die and i have a two year old that i have to bring with me. If it is the sensor then how do i know what one to buy? Please write me as soon as you can. Thank you for your help.
Stressed out,
Amanda

Get the battery and alternator load tested if okay have the electrical system checked for a short circuit that may be causing the battery to drain
