No Voltage on Terminal 30A from FRM

Greeting!

I just bought my daughter a 2013 X1 with 89K miles at a great price due to light failures (and probably because I'm a masochist). The FRM is reporting 9CA9 Terminal 30 Connection Fault and 9CB1 Dimmer Potentiometer Faulty. There are no other codes reported in ISTA. Pin 2 on connector X14260 is getting about 1.2V as measured with a multimeter. Battery is new. Fuses all check out. Power to C14261 pins 1 and 3 are showing battery voltage. Does anyone have a schematic that shows the components involved including locations for everything power to X14260 pin 2 goes through? Any information or suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Power to that pin is supplied from largest cable coming from the fuse block on top of the battery which connects behind the front fuse panel behind the glove box. The connector to the front fuse panel failed. BMW has a repair kit part#61129312133. It was $65 at the dealer. I also found it online for $35 but I was in a hurry to fix it...
