electrical drain

Hi guys.

wonder if anyone has advice on an electrical prob on my 85 Carrera pls?
Expensive New battery and healthy alternator but battery runs flat over a couple of weeks in garage.
A tester shows a drain of around 0.7 amps when everything is switched off.
I have pulled the fuses and main relays one by one but drain continues?

I'm wondering if it is a result of an aftermarket alarm with a direct feed and separate fusing somewhere although I don't set the alarm on when in the garage??

Many thanks
Colin
 
Kinda guessing here as its a few years since I owned an SC. I would look at either frunk or boot light switches. Aftermarket devices will draw a current but you'd have to strip back the wiring loom to find then discount it. Process of elimination, good luck, hope you track the little blighter down.
