Here's one way to find out what's discharging your battery:

Disconnect your ground cable from the battery. Switch your RS meter to VDC and hook it between the battery and ground cable. (Meter + to battery +, meter minus to ground.)

Make sure everything is turned off. If the meter reads zero, there's no discharge through the tractor, and you have to look elsewhere (not charging, etc.)

If the meter reads about 12V, you have a leak somewhere. Start disconnecting things until the meter drops to less than a volt. When that happens, you've found your problem.
