As to your current drain when "off", check the voltage at terminals 1 and 2 with the engine stopped and ignition "off".
There should be NO voltage at terminal "1", terminal "2" typically will have battery voltage.
If there IS voltage on #1, pull the connector and check for voltage in the "harness side" #1 terminal.
If voltage is present there, the wiring is wrong, and you need to trace the wire and figure out what it's connected to and move it to a source that powers off when the ignition is switched "off", also to prevent engine run-on and protect the alternator there SHOULD be a resistor, diode, or lamp in that circuit.
One thing that I have seen many times... the system may have worked originally, but at some point the wires to terminal "1" and "2" get switched around.
Does yours have a connector body/plug that will only plug in one way, or two individual wires?
Even with a plug, it's possible that it's been replaced do to damage and/or someone has put the wires in the wrong cavities.

The answer to our needs materialized in the form of a '44 Farmall A, complete with cultivators, discs, single plow, a 5ft.Woods belly mower and one, mounted spare 9.00x24 rear wheel.
