Just for a quick reference of electrical facts.
If you have a short circuit you should see ZERO volts across it (or lower than source voltage, on the other hand you will read source voltage across an open circuit.
Voltage does not kill a battery drawing AMPs does. So what do you mean pulling over 12 volts from it?

85 vettes had a problem with the courtsey light located on the right sunvisor. It is called a vanity mirror light. The circuit number is 150, a black wire, and circuit 39 a pink and black wire. Check that area first. Have you had any fuses blow?
