These what your after?
The last pic(prob the fuse box your referring to) doesn't list specific items like you want,only specific circuits.. I can fish through them if you need a particular circuit traced but there's 27 so it's not practical to take pics of them all haha

Wow! I spent all day checking grounds under the hood. Tearing apart dashboard, gauge cluster, following wires for hours. I finally fixed the problem and it happened to be by accident. Don't laugh though. I was going to use my meter to check something around fuse block on inside kick panel. I put the black lead on a bolt that is apparently for the ground plate that grounds the fuse block. Holy crap sparks. Tightened the bolt. Problem solved. Wow!

Glad you found the problem. It's crazy how grounds can cause a system to go completely haywire.
