What is your question?
The starter wire melted from heat off the exhaust. I replaced the starter, battery, and wire. Now when I turn the engine off I hear a clicking noise in the dash and the battery is dead within five minutes

You have some sort of battery draw that needs to be isolated and illuminated. You would need an Amp meter disconnect one cable of the battery put your Amp meter in series with the battery cable that has been removed. Note the draw say for example 15 Amps, with the keys out of the ignition, doors closed driver's window down, start removing the fuse links and fuses one at a time until the voltage draw goes away to zero (or near zero). It is that circuit that is causing the electrical draw, then look at a wiring diagram, see what consumers are on that circuit and start to isolate each circuit to see which is the culprit. Wiring diagrams may be found in workshop manuals.
