since i just experienced this with my car i thought i should mention:

1. check the interior door light switches in both pillars...are the lights comming on when door is open?...if not they could be shorting...
...same is true for front trunk and front hood light switches

**front hood switch also rests against a small piece of metal when hood is shut and sometimes this piece of metal gets bent downward and does not turn the light off....replacing the pillar switches cured my drain problem..

2. there are several threads about checking draw on battery and you should check that also to help determine source using a difital ampmeter...
