L322 Amplifier draining battery

After many many months of my battery draining within 2 days I have found out that the culprit was the stereo amplifier in the boot, since disconnecting it my battery doesn't drain anymore so I was wondering if anyone knows if the amp can be refurbished and where would be best to get it done as I don't want to shell out over £200 on a second hand one for it to do the same

Probably find it's wet.
 
So I've had the amplifier out and given it a clean but there are bits of it i can't get to to clean so i'm having to put in a relay to cut the power when the car is off so am after a bit of electrical knowledge.

Which wires do i need to use? I know i have to use the main power feed from the battery that's no problem but which wire do i need to use to have the power cut when i turn the car off? would it be the radio on signal wire?

This is driving me round the bend now so any help would be great.
Thanks guys
 
Yes I understand that, I know what the problem is and i'm not prepared to pay over 200 quid to fix it adding a relay will sort it for me in the short term, My RR isnt a hybrid and i have to plug it in every day to keep the battery charged
But you do not know what other problems will be caused by the leakage of current through corroded parts. You may end up with an even more expensive problem, you can't run these cars for peanuts.
