My 1990 300SL has a kind of relays at the right side in the trunk behind the wheel well, above the battery. I had a problem with my (OEM MB additional) alarm system when I had just bought the car 1,5 year ago and pulled some of the connectors from this relays to get rid of the flashing indicators (I was 250km from home without my remote control (I hated it and didn't use it) and an alarm system that got activated as soon as I entered the car (although it hadn't been set)).
There is a device there that has something to do with the central locking/alarm system and it did cause some problems on my 1990 300SL. I have taken off some the connectors and haven't bothered to look into that ever after again...

If it isn't the power convertible top (like you presume right now), I suppose that the top is functioning properly and that your only problem is an activated motor that drains the battery?

greetingz,
