Where is this wire routed?

Well, been chasing this gremlin for a while. Typical DDM issues it seems. Found no continuity between fuse 30 to the Lt Green/Violet wire into the DMM. I have continuity from the DDM module connector to the middle of the door hinge but nada from the hinge to the fuse. Any suggestions?Scan.webp
 
Jumpered the #21 pin to the #30 fuse wire coming from the back of the fusebox and everything works. Still just can't find the break in the wire between the fusebox and the door hinge. So much crap in the way. Anyone know where this wire travels?
 
Progress but not quite as much as I was hoping for.

I couldn't find the break in the wire but it definitely exists somewhere from the fusebox to the door. So I ran a new line from the fusebox #30 fuse to the #21 pin on the DDM connector. Wherever S511 is it's no longer part of the system. The keyfob works and locks/unlocks the doors now, which is progress. However the mirrors, door locks, seat movement, pedal movement, and trunk open are still unresponsive. I have a used Ebay "guaranteed to work" DDM coming sometime later this week and will see if this resolves the issue. If not then I suppose we should just be happy to have a working keyfob that allows us to unlock the car.

S511 is in the door itself according to the manual. Near T/O of C510( which is the connection to the luggage release switch. It splits the light green pwr to the other devices the you mention aren't working.
