Default Help! '02 A6 Quattro 2.8 mystery battery drain.

Hey guys. I'm stumped. Recently my blinker quit working on the A6. After a quick Google I realized that it was probably my hazard switch relay. I removed my switch to see that I had the "9 pin" style model. I found one online for about 40$ and bought it. It was the universal relay that they make now for both 9 and 10 "pin" styles.
I replace the bad relay and hurray the blinkers work perfectly! EXCEPT, now there is a weird battery drain going on. Dead battery in two days. It seems that the interior lights are always on in the cabin. Also the cigarette lighter doesn't work anymore. The fuses are all good. What could be happening here? Everything was fine until I replaced the damn relay. Thanks guys!
