Can't find battery drain
something is causing my battery to drain overnight. I put a circuit tester between the cable and battery terminal and it lights up when the truck is off.
I then pulled every fuse one at a time and the light on my circuit tester never went off.
should I remove all the fuses and then start putting them back in to see which circuit is causing the drain?
are there fuses anywhere else in this truck (2003 Expedition) that I have missed besides the ones in the passenger footwell?

Are you testing current draw specifically? If testing continuity or voltage, you wouldn't expect the light to go off.
Check to see if the mirror lights go off on the visors.
Do you have an after market alarm system added besides PATS?
New radio recently installed?
Power seat switches work properly?
If checking current draw, what kind of amperage draw do you see?
