Headlights draining battery

I've got a '90 BII with a 2.9L V6, I've put a new battery and rebuilt altenator in it, and still loosing my battery if it sits longer than a day. I did some testing at the power distribution box under the hood and found that at the headlight fuse it is still drawing power when everything is shut down. Before I start pulling everything apart to find the problem, has anyone had this problem, or am I chasing the wrong thing?

Thanks for any info!!
