Default LH Heelboard Fuse Box Wiring Schematics

Seeking wiring schematics of LH Heelboard fusebox.

I believe I have found parasitic drain on circuit/fuse #18 "Instrument Cluster" with 5A Fuse. Hoping to find out what circuits are part of Instrument Cluster. When asleep (40 minutes) with fuse in, circuit draws 0.150 mA, with fuse out 0.050mA. Car won't start after 3 days of inactivity. I have an extension cord plugged into a trickle charger so often that I feel like I own an electric car.

If I can't figure out further I guess I will put a fused inline switch to disable circuit each time I turn off car. Even if I find the specific circuit I think the fix will be the same, a switch.

Thanks in advance

The Jaguar Electrical Guide will have the entire wiring scheme for the car.
The beginning of the FIGURES will have the power distribution for all fuse/relay boxes.

Gus will have the guides on the jagrepair site.

Check the opening where the key is inserted. There is a small flap that has to close when the key is removed. Iff it is not closing it may be the source of your problem. If it is holding slightly open spray it with some electrical contact cleaner or WD-40.
I will check and see if I have the electrical book and let you know.
