Well...
One way to start into tracking it down would be to pull each fuse out and
check the amperage across the clips with a multi-meter.  Compare the ones
that have significant amperage to the wiring diagram to try to guess for
likely suspects, and narrow it down from there seeing what things do and
don't have a positive voltage beyond their switches or relays.
