Default Electrical problem, couple symptoms, please help.

1. First problem, Main car battery seems to be dying prematurely. Only 15 months old.
2. Did a draw test and I did it it only showed 10 Milliamp draw.
3. Remote fob barely unlocks the car now. Checked the internal battery of the fob shows three volts which is what it supposed to be. Any suggestions on key fob problem or battery drain? Thanks

Update ,
1. Replaced car battery, but still having some sort of issue with an intermittent or hard to find draw. Even the new battery seems to get drained.
2. Hard start possibly due to leaking red power wire going to starter. Going to get aluminum tape, rap it, and try to reroute.
3. Key Fob problem fixed, put a new battery in the key Fob that reads 3.3 V, what a difference 0.3 V can make .
