Default Electrical question

Can anyone tell me what system or relay the far left connector ("A") on the fuse/relay panel is associated with? (The disconnected yellow one on the left side of the picture.) This is on an '82 928.

Thanks!

Building on the above, A7 is red/black associated with key warning buzzer & ignition switch.
A8 is red and is power for the door interior lights and the door safety lights (little red ones).

Excellent!! Thanks so much. One problem found (bad light switch; intermitent short inside).

And with that problem isolated, it unmasked a second. Do you all also happen to know what the 5th connector from the left ("E") is associated with? E7 in particular, I believe.

Thanks!!

E7 is the 30 bus connection to the hazard light switch and the central warning system.

The electrical diagrams, along with a huge amount of other tech info, are in the CD set that Jim Morehouse has prepared. The best purchase that you can make for your 928! Jim's email is jim928ATptd.net - change the AT to @
