Basically you insert an amp meter between the battery cable and post, then pull fuses one at a time until the draw goes down. There's a lot more to the story that I can share if you want to tackle this yourself. Do you have a digital volt-ohm-amp meter, and know how to use it? You'll also need at least one small jumper wire, . . . three is better. this guide can help us fix it
