I was recently working on a Ford Transit with a similar problem, it turned out to be the Alternator.

I had pulled every fuse one by one and still there was a 2.5amp drain, the only thing left was the alternator as nothing else was connected electrically apart from the starter motor and as soon as I undid the multiplug on the back it dropped to 0.02. I conneded it again and the the 2.5amp draw continued.

One new Alternator and the van is restored to full health.

It had no charging issues and no warning lights.

Good luck.
