Default 318 is electrical problem

I have a 91 e30 318 is that has a battery drain issue over 2 days of sitting.
Alt, and battery check out fine. System shows a slightly excessive load with
volt/amp meter. Removing fuses has not isolated the problem. Before I jump in,
are there any common short type problems with this model?

How old is the battery? Beware of "checked good". Depends on who's
checking and what they're looking for.
