Default Battery Drain Problem

I have 04 Cope and it experience, like others,a battery drain. I connected an ammeter in series with the battery, it showed adrain of 70 mA most of the time. If I disconnect fuse #9 (Dome light, remote, etc.),the drain drops to 60 mA, but the remote will be disabled. If I disconnect fuse# 9 and 35 (radiofrequency & remote) together, the drain drops to 40mA,however the car won’t run. I turned the dome light off and disconnected thetrunk light bulb as well. Now, with fuse #9 out, the battery last only 3 daysif the key is on. It will last 7 days with the key off. It seems that the drainis mainly generated from the security system, sometimes, the lights flash forno reason. Have any one encountered any of these problems and I wonder if anyone have any thoughts about this problem.
