[V8] Electrical Drain

Any BTDT on an electrical problem with a 1991 V8.  If the car sits for more than 36 - 48 hours the battery goes dead.  I replaced the battery and that didn't help.
 
I pulled each fuse and put a test light on each circuit and the "Instrument cluster, processor, brake lights, P-lock" circuit (#28) lights the tester.  I held it for 60 seconds or so in case there is a delay relay and it stays lit.  It sounds as if there is a relay behind the instrument cluster that is clicking.  Is there a relay or something behind the instrument cluster that could be "hanging up" and causing the battery drain.
 
 
Thanks in advance for any insight
