1995 Chevy Van V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 100K miles

HI everyone and thank you in advance for your assitance. I am at the begining of diagnosising a battery drain. Customer reports battery will go dead after sitting over night. I have tested the battery suing a Snap On tester, it is ok, 650 CCA, alternator has also checked out ok 15.2v. I placed my ameter in line with the neg battery terminal and let the van sit for 20 minutes. While monitoring the meter I am getting a.225 draw. I started removing fuses until the drain fell below.02. The fuse that caused the drop is the "STOP HZ" fuse. Can anyone point me to a problem location and or a wiring diagram for this curcuit?

thanks.

Then save it and enlarge it.
There is nothing else I can do. I hosted at an image site so you could see it larger but you seem to be the only one that can't read it. I can see it clearly. When I upload it, the site reduces the size so I can't change that.

You did a great job! Thanks, I was able to take the image and got it to work, thanks again. It appears the "audioable" warning is also on that curcuit. IIRC I heard no dinging or buzzing while working on it. Ill start there tonight. This is my Aunts van and I am just helping her out. I am not making anything on this job. I appreciate the help, thank you.
