Missing power for clock and HVAC

Ford Galaxy MkII 2003.
My clock and HVAC has no power from fuse F32. There is power on red/white wire just after fuse (Fuse OK). But no power at the usage points for the clock and HVAC.
According to Haynes - Ford Galaxy, the F32 is distributed for central locking system (fully functioning) and other stuff.
So, how to proceed?
-Any chance to find some distribution point for the red/white wire, and improve connection?
-Should i just add a direct connection wire (I tried this temporarily, it works)?
-I have an ELM 327 OBDII wifi interface. Is this of any use finding/correcting the error? What software should I use?
Any help greatly appreciated!

F32 has a couple of distrubution points, one of them being at the bottom of the passenger side A pillar (bit of a pig to find) and the other is by the drivers footwell. Both are known corrosion spots...

Since some of those circuits are also the fuse is intact then I would be happy to say your issues is one of those joints. If you can find them, you can repair but running another wire is acceptable if not.
