Switched feeds
Are there any switched feeds under the bonnet (engine bay fuses/relays for instance) that I can tap into? i.e Will be open circuit if the ignition is off or the engine is not running. Preferably high current but not essential.

What am I doing wrong? Using a multitmeter, I check for voltage with the ignition at StageII and when I find one, I turn the ignition off but they all stay live. I've gone through all the fuse terminals in the engine bay and can't find one ignition switched.
Is it my testing method?
Where is the glowplug relay timer switched feed please?
The fuel cut-off solenoid has exposed wiring outside the pump, couldn't I tap that?
I'm sorted for switched lives inside the passenger compartment, under the centre console.
