Default I.O.D. Circuit

How much amperage does this circuit draw with the vehicle is OFF?? I'm tracing a parasitic drain on my batteries and this circuit is pulling 0.19Amps with the key out of the ignition.

Not sure how much it draws, I can test it when I get home, but it powers the door buzzers, interior dome lights, under hood light, radio memory, and possibly some other things. But the only thing that draws power off that cuirct that is not controlled by a switch is the radio memory. Try unplugging the jnderhood light, sometime soon it can get stuck on.

Start with the engine bay light. That does seem a bit high for draw but not too bad. Pull all of your fuses, start plugging them back in to see where the draw comes from. I'd start with the fuse box in the engine bay.
