Exclamation 2000 expedition power drain question

I’m currently testing my vehicle for power drain at rest... i am using the method of removing the negative battery terminal and putting a test light in between the terminal and the negative battery post. The light did light up. I find the drain to be the following, a 7.5 amp fuse for the memory (seats, mirrors, pedals) and the other is right next to it, a 5 amp fuse for the air ride module. Each one by itself barely (but do) light the test light. However together the light does light, not to bright but it does pick up the draw.. is this a normal characteristic of this truck, or is this something I should be worried about???<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>

Nope, there's a normal current drain for those items. You could try an ammeter in place of the test light and that could tell you more precisely what the draw is.
