Hello again!
Finally some news. The problem was solved, which turned out to have been caused by a failed ORVR valve.
Btw the issue was rectified by Callas Rennsport. Kudos to Tony!!

Did you read the thread posts to which you added your request for help?
A quick glance I gather the problem can be a fuse or some hose that has come undone.
In the case of the fuse you can replace this with a similar fuse but if the fuse blows again there is a short. IIRC the fuse also protects some other circuit though I don't recall which one off hand. I think it is something related to a phone which in my reference is E6. If this fuse proves to be bad then you would have to trouble shoot that circuit.
For the hose I think this is accessible but you have to remove the right front wheel/tire and the wheel well liner. There are a bunch of hoses -- fuel tank venting/vapor recovery system related -- under there and I'm not sure which hose is suspect. From what I recall reading this is generally something the owner has addressed at the dealer or an indy shop.
