If lots higher, start pulling fuses one at at time till the ma reading drops - that will be the area where the problem is.
From a post of mine in February 2011, this is my 2004 Crossfire.
Quote; 'By coincidence I have just checked the parasitic drain on my battery.
Unlocked it averaged 15 mA and locked it jumped back and forth between 15 mA and 20 mA. The 15 mA reading flickered between 13 and 16 mA. The 20 mA reading flickered between 21 and 19 mA.'

I'd say FPs problems are the RCM and the battery drain may be the fault of the RCM as well if the problems started at the same time.
