Passenger side trunk you will see a foam wrapped box that is the central locking pump and alarm module. There are a few hounds back there. Brown wires bolted to body.

Thank you Infinity for your valuable suggestions. I cleaned the ground cable between the chassis and the transmission, checked the air pumpand its ground, took the glove compartment light bulb out, all that did not help. It is still draining 75 mA. If I remove fuse #9, the drain drops to 35mA. Certainly, F9 is contributing to the drain, and it controls the doom and trunk lights, and the security and antitheft relay/module. When I install F9 back in its place, I can hear a click under the dash. I am currently driving the car without F9, the doom and trunk lights are disabled as well as the remote locking control. Do you have any experience with the antitheft relay? Is there any thread regarding problems with this relay? Thanks again.
