Battery going dead

I have a 2003 Expedition that has something drawing the battery down. I have traced it to a wire that runs from the battery back through the firewall but not sure where it goes from there. We checked the wire & it is drawing around 5 amps constantly. I wondered if anyone has an idea what this wire goes to. This is a large wire, not your typical 12 gauge wire. Any info is greatly appreciated.
