The radio fuse is in the fuse panel inside under the left side of the dash. It is marked on the fuse cover as Radio, clock. If the battery drains down fast, like overnight there is another problem, sometimes aftermarket alarm systems will drain the battery down. Check for any lights that may be staying on like the stop lights or interior lights.

Under the dash, under steering wheel to the left. Also check the fuse box under the hood over the drivers side wheel well.

SOURCE: 2001 Toyota Corolla high beam lights are not

Your switch must be working since your indicator is telling you when the high beams are on, so my guess is that your bulbs are faulty. The high beam part. They probably burnt out one at a time, so you didn't notice until the second one went. Change your bulbs, and see if that solves it. If not, let me know.

SOURCE: 2005 Toyota Corolla Radio fuse

Pg. 250 of your 2005 Owner's Manual shows the location of the Fuse Boxes. There is one under your hood on the driver's side and the other is under the dash just to the left of steering wheel. Pg 272, will show you how to replace the fuses. Pg. 286-287 gives a diagram and description of each fuse and what part of the electrical system it enables.
This portion of the electrical system correspondeds to the fuse in position 32 on pg. 287 of the manual.
Your going to have to get on your back with a flashlight and open up the fuse box under the dash by the steering wheel. The lid of the fuse box shows the positions of the fuse and their amperage rating. Like I said, replace the fuse in postion 32 (15 Amp). There is a spare 15 Amp fuse in the fuse box under the hood (easy to get to, see the diagrams in the owner's manual). There is also a fuse puller tool next to the spare fuses.

On my 2002 Jeep Liberty something in the door lock system keeps draining the battery. If I pull the number 34 fuse there's no more draw on the battery what could it be?

Have you recently got any wiring done, like a new radio or anything? The only thing that I could think of is that there's a short in the wiring or maybe the fuse is bad. Try these answers if you haven't already...

Battery keeps dying slowly. Is there a solution that I haven't tried yet? Could it be a fuse?

Yes, the buzz is probably a power draw. From the fuse list it appears that there may be more than one audio fuse. Also it looks like the power mirrors are on the same circuit as the running lights which are not ignition switch controlled. You should try pulling fuses one at a time until the buzz goes away; if that doesn't help, try the relays one at a time. The battery drain issue often overlooked is the alternator which is connected all of the time, a faulty diode in the alternator can drain the battery even with all of the fuses out.
If you are handy with electrical circuits, you might want to invest in a factory wiring diagram book like the one in the link, but search ebay for a better deal.

With all fuses in it drains the battery pull the fuse out the battery stays charge but lights don't work or radio

You'll need to trace that circuit to find out where the short to ground or power drain is. Could be something inside the radio or a light switch.
You may need a shop manual to get the wiring diagrams.

As with any battery drain, you would pull the fuses and disconnect the major circuits while watching a test light or meter that is showing the drain. When you find the circuit in question the light goes off.
Then the fun begins trying to find the source of the drain. In your case you may want to start with disconnecting the radio. You may need a shop manual to get the wiring diagrams.

Are you sure that you have a problem with something draining the battery, or do you have a problem with the alternator not charging the battery? I would have the alternator tested to make sure of that before spending hours and hours troubleshooting electrical problems.

Basically, to check a problem like this you will need a clamp on amp meter. Then you pull fuses from you fuse panel and see where the drain is. Make sure you have a good layout of your fuse panel and fuse sizes (a digital photo is also a good idea) before starting, so you don't introduce problems.

all vehicles since the 80s have a continuous drain, it keeps the ecm , radio keyless etc, anything that requires memory, although one week is a little short, i would wonder if the battery is not getting a full charge?? like only used on short trips. disconnect the neg terminal and bridge it with a test light, it should glow bright for a few seconds then dim, that is normal , if it stays bright pull fuses one at a time , you should find the circuit that is staying closed

Get a multimeter then disconnect the positive side of the battery. Measure the amp(current) between the terminal you just disconnected and the positive battery while the car is off. and have someone get a tweezer and pull out one at a time each fuse in the fuse box. When the amp goes down on the multimeter then you found out where in your car there is a short. Note the fuse you pulled out in your car manual. It could be radio shorting, domelight shorting. Sometimes kids drop pennys or coins in the radio disk slots shorting the radio or amplifier in the car is always on.

My battery drains if the car sits for more than 24 hours without running.

Somewhere, you have a subsystem in the car with a short that is causing your battery to drain. The way to narrow this down is this:

Get a 12-volt light bulb (any bulb from a turn signal or something to that effect will work), and solder a wire onto each lug on the bottom. Disconnect the cable from the negative terminal of your battery, and place the bulb inline with it, so that it is "cable - bulb - battery" (connect one bulb wire to the neg battery cable, and the other to the neg battery terminal). The bulb should light up. This is because you have current being drawn through the car.

Now, go to the fusebox, and take out the fuses for the radio, the car's computer, and the clock (since these all have current drawn at all times). Now of the remaining fuses, remove one fuse at a time. Check the bulb each time - if it stays on, the fuse you have just pulled is not in the circuit with the drain. Put the fuse back and move to the next one. If you pull a fuse, and the bulb goes out, you've just broken the conduction circuit - you've found the system in the car that is responsible for the current draw, and have stopped it by pulling the fuse and opening the circuit. Whichever system or systems that fuse is intended to safeguard, that is where you must now troubleshoot.

I know it's only a partial solution, but it'll get you into the neighborhood of where the problem is, and once you get there, post up some more info and maybe we can take it further and figure out the problem.
