Default terminal blocks / auxiliary relay panel.

Hi, can't seem to find my big book...

anyway, by your knee, there is the (2nd?) auxiliary relay panel - there are 5 or so terminal blocks. Anyone know what each is? I assume one is always power, one is switched power, etc.. is there a diagram somewhere?

Right below the steering wheel, above the relay panel that hosts the idle controller, seat heat controllers, etc, there is a 5 or 6 wide terminal block, each being roughly the size of a relay socket, with 1/4" connectors.

I seem to recall tapping into it before, for a radio or so, but I'm curious what each of them are. Think one is switched power, another is constant power, etc. unsure what the remaining 3-4 of them are. I seem to recall them being color coded, red, black, yellow, etc.

Well, found my bentley. if anyone cares in the future...

relay sockets 19 through 22, 19 being the furthest right, closest to the ignition.

19 - terminal 15 (switched power, start/run) - looks to be unfused? can't be. Powers ECU, and some sensors, etc.

20 - term 30ac - constant power, fused at 25 amps, also powers rear cig lighter, inj coolant fan, auxiliary water pump,

21 - term 54 - tap off the brake light - to ECU and ABS box.

22 - term 58d - interior lighting, goes all over the place.
