Take your test light and hook it between the the battery and the cable. Hook the ground cable up. If there is any draw on the system the light will glow. Now start unhooking one thing at a time starting with the alternator, or the voltage regulator/generator. Then the ignition, headlights, ect. With the test light hooked in series on the cable you wont have the amp draw to hurt anything and even if you accidentally short a hot wire out to ground it will just ground out a small load and turn on the light.
When you find the problem the light will go out. It's much easier on a car or newer tractor as all you have to do is pull fuses, but many more. Just remember on a car or newer tractor you have to pull the radio/clock fuse, dome light, hood lights to get rid of all the normal parasitic draws.
