It's definitely not that. An ignition power source is otherwise known as a switched power source. It is on when you press the start engine button without pressing the brake.

By accessory power source, do you mean retained accessory power source, which is a wire that retains power after engine shutdown for about 10 mins or until a door is opened?

If that is the case, can someone point me towards a wire, preferably in the passenger footwell that provides retained accessory power? I am planning to remove the passenger kick panel in order to connect an accessory to the radio control module and I need this accessory to remain on for as long as the radio is on, after I shut down the engine. One of the wires on the connectors that connect to the radio control module should definitely be a retained accessory source. Anyone knows which wire?
