There is a procedure for finding a battery draw like that.
You will need a digital ammeter and a jumper wire with clips on the ends to do this.
First rig any door switches so you can have a door open without triggering the
interior lights and unplug the hood light. Remove one battery cable and attach the
meter in series between the battery cable and battery post. Take the jumper wire
and also attach it the same way. Leave the jumper wire on for at least 10 minutes to
expire all the automatic timers. Now remove the jumper wire and read the meter.
Anything over 50ma is too much draw. The way you locate this is to start removing
fuses one at a time until the meter drops to normal level. This will be the circuit
with something staying on. Determine what components are part of that circuit and
check them individually until the problem is isolated.
