Battery draining - "Cluster (Battery)" fuse

I've got about a 500 to 750 mA amp draw when the car is off and I think I've isolated it down to a fuse labeled "Cluster (Battery)" -- fuse #26 in the passenger interior box. Anyone know what this circuit is or why it might have a constant draw?

This is a 2013 Mustang GT/CS.

I've searched extensively already (both here and on google) and came up empty handed for this particular issue. Perhaps you can point me to the threads you're talking about?

That is not my question. My question is what does this fuse mean-- read my post.

Also your link doesn't work.

You type in dead battery or drained battery A.K.A keywords, just as I previously stated... Therefore I read your post.. Here's the links once again, if they stop working.. Just type in the keywords that I mentioned in the search box !

Apparently he didn't find a solution... Also just a heads up in case you didn't notice, but the last activity on this thread was from 5 years ago...

Cluster battery solved, kinda

Experienced this problem after some trouble shooting and a little research I found you have to wait 15-30 min for the cluster to enter sleep mode.test without breaking the circuit. I went from .70 to .08 by waiting. My original problem was caused by registration stuck in the flap of the vanity mirror. Hope this helps someone because it drove me crazy.
