Hmmm... So its not one of the colored/clear fuses? Its one of the large
black relays? Do you remember which one? When you mentioned ignition
relay, I pulled mine out and took a look (didn't see any discoloration)
but I pulled one of the big fuses, not the relays. (I just looked at the
description under the box, and the only ignition related stuff I saw
was for those fuses.) See:

I guess I'll have to pull out some of the relays and look for anything
unusual.
