Default Diagnosing an electrical drain, #6 40A fuse

Hello, my 2001 bullitt dies in about 2 days if I don't drive it. Plugging in a multimeter shows a consistent .35A draw even after the car has been off with the doors closed for a long time. The car does not have anything aftermarket like an alarm or remote starter that would cause this.

I have went through the standard procedure of checking draw from the fuses inside the cabin but nothing connected to those are the issue. The draw only goes away if I disconnect the #6 40A fuse in the engine bay. I'm new to this so I would appreciate it if someone had a wiring diagram or told me where to find one so that I can check what is connected to that 40A fuse in the engine bay and try to diagnose it from there

That fuse simply powers the CJB and a mess of other fuses. So you'll have a bit of hunting to do to. Good luck
