Default Jeep has major power drain.

So I did the test with a light where you hook it to the negative battery cable and the negative post and the light lights up like I am giving it full power and I started taking wires off 1 at a time and found out when I take the power wire for the starter relay the light turns off. I just rewired the ignition switch to toggles. It's a 87 jeep cherokee.

Check your work if this wasn't happening before you re-wired.
