Parasitic Draw on 01 Honda 350 ES

[Double-Eh]

So I think I have this multimeter thing sorted out, please correct me if I'm wrong:
- Red lead plugged into "20A" (seems everything online is 10A, but mine doesn't have it... only 20A or just A... Go PowerFist)
- Black lead into COM.
- Dial set to DCA, 20.
It shows 0.33 which I presume means 0.33 amps, or 333 milli-amp?

Quad is a 2001 Honda fourtrax/rancher 350 ES, from what I've read it shouldn't be drawing much more that 5 milli-amp for the clock with ignition off.
When I pull the "motor" fuse, the draw vanishes zero.
I don't know if this is relevant, but about 2 months back the engine fuse blew, but no issues since.

Smart guy I am I blew my multimeter fuse messing around, so I can't test any further until tomorrow.

Thoughts on what may be the cause of my draw or how I may test it once I sort my meter?

I would get a good meter or verify with a 100w light bulb. That is close to 1 amp draw. 0.8 or so. .33A. = 330mA.

Is this the meter you are using?

The specs say the meter has a DC Current Range = 200 mA = .2 Amps

I presume you are measuring the amp draw with the meter in the circuit in series?

I own the same machine (2001 foot shift), have an clymer repair manual, and live in edmonton. Perhaps you could compare some measurements etc to my machine if you can't figure it out.

If you have a test light you can run it inline on your ground and test for parasitic draw as well. Unhook your negative terminal and clamp it to the test light, ground the other end on your negative battery post and start pulling fuses/ chasing wires until the light goes out.
