Anyone who knows about the function of the grey external relay on the backside of the BCM?

I think on the panel that covers the BCM/fuse panel there is a label that tells what all the fuses and relays are for, you might check on that label and see if it answers your question.  I am not near my car right now or I would check.

Nope, this one is on the backside. You have to take out the BCM to see it. If I could upliad a photo it would be easier to explain.

It's the RAP relay, retained accessory power or the feature that powers the radio and windows after you shut off the engine before you open the doors.

It is called out on the fuse label it just doesn't say on the back side of the BCM.
