If your ammeter does not read in the millivolt range then it is not telling you anything. If you are using an ammeter that is made to show charge or discharge in a normal charging system, it will not show real low amperage that would drain your battery. I usually take a test light and put it between the ground cable and the battery terminal. If it lights I then start unhooking things until I get it to go out. If a test light does not light then I use my multi- meter that will read amperages in the millivolt range. If it shows a draw I start unhooking things again until it shows no discharge.
Also charge your battery up and let it set unhooked. I have found many that will test fine on a load tester but will drain down setting for 24-36 hours unhooked.
