I would get a sensitive zero centre ammeter and put it inline with the battery cable to register discharge.Turn on the key to witness the flow and start pulling fuses one at a time.It won’t definitively tell you what it is, but will tell you a lot of things that it isn’t.
This is my logic. You can only have current flow if there is a path from positive to earth. Therefore if you have the positive and negative both disconnected you should have a completely open circuit. If not, and you have a wire diagram please post it so we can give you some suggestions.Steve
