ford mondeo; the battery drains overnight?

I have had the battery checked in my ford mondeo hatchback 'V' reg (sept 1999) and it is fine. However it will be flat withing a few hours unless I remove the fuse that controlls all those divices that normally stay on when the ignition is not on - that is the central locking, radio, inside clock, and inside lights. There must be a short circuit on one of these functions. Has anyone had such a poblem, and could possibly point to exactly where this fault is most likely to be, and how I may fix it?

It may be that it's one of the door latches is sticking on when locked and still making a circuit. Ihave had the same problem and mine was the drivers side door latch £113 for the latch from ford or £207 for them to fit it. Get it checked first.
