Chasing a battery drain in my Bu and wondering where I would find the mercury switches for the hood and trunk to see if they are causing the issue? Is it in the bracket that holds the light?

Yes, they are where the light is. If that doesn't work, try disconnecting the alternator and letting it sit. Do you have any other electronics in the car? Those are the only 2 things that come to mind on a stock car.

Well I have narrowed the draw to the courtesy fuse. There is no bracket or light under the hood or trunk so if the mercury switch is in the bracket that rules that out. Glove box has no light in it so between those 3 there should be minimal draw if any at all. I guess my next guess after mercury switches was door switches. Which web I had the delay box plugged in they seemed to function properly so I'm not sure it's that.
