A quick way to isolate the circuit is to pull the cable from the battery. Then connect an ampmeter between the cable and the battery treminal. Read the amperage draw. By the way, the ref books should list the acceptable amp draw with the key off.
Shut the doors and hood so no lights are on. By the way, check that glove compartment light!
Next, pull 1 fuse at a time and check the amp draw, when it significantly drops, you have isolated the culprit circuit. Check what is attached to that particular fuse circuit, then troubleshoot those devices.
