Default Battery Drain coming from AM2 Fuse

My son’s car is a 2007 and it has a minor battery drain that will kill the battery after a few days if it is not driven and I cannot find the culprit, actually not me, but my neighbor who is a mechanic for a Ford dealership is helping me… We tracked the issue to the AM2 fuse; when the fuse is in there is a .100 amp draw, when that fuse is removed the draw drops to .010 Amps.

The electrical diagram that he found for the car says that AM2 is used for the ignition switch, so he disconnected the ignition switch with no luck, the draw remains. Anyone have any ideas? Is there anything else that would use the AM2 Fuse that could be drawing power from the battery?

Thanks.

I don't see anything else in the diagram. have you checked the fuse and fuse holder for any corrosion?
