Circuit/System Description
The retained accessory power (RAP) relay is located in the instrument panel (I/P) fuse block. The relay control is from the BCM and the coil ground is from G302. The relay switched output feeds the RAP MISC fuse 10 A and the PWR/WINDW circuit breaker both within the I/P fuse block. The RAP MISC fuse supplies voltage to the shift lock control solenoid, inside rearview mirror, and if equipped the sunroof.
