The Series V wiring diagram does show a white wire coming off of the fuse
box and marked "O/D". I don't know where it ends in reality. Possibly
where you state. It's only logical. However, I don't recall if you have a
SV or earlier model. The SV had the self-cancelling switch and wires
differently. However, that doesn't mean that it isn't the same color power
wire there. I just don't have that diagram here at work.
The brown non-keyed power wire would not be used for the OD. I'm not sure
why it's there.
Generally, white is keyed power and brown is all-time from the battery
power. Neither are fused. Note that the OD white wire off of the fuse box
does not go through the fuse box. it only branches off of there from the
switch. The other side of that fuse are the green wires.
In case you haven't seen them yet, the manuals do have wiring diagrams for
the OD's - they are just in the OD section, not the wiring diagram section.
