4 light switches with 1 unkown and porch light comes on with flood lights. That unknown switch must be for the porch or flood lights, they should not come on together. Square drive screws need a Robertson Driver (I would use them on everything - love 'em)

Ok, pulled the switches. There are wires connected to all of the switches. The wires then disappear into the wall. What else could that switch be for? That's going to drive me nuts!

Wow, that's odd. I have an FB1900, and it is exactly as everyone else described.
Red switches - Front exterior light, Porch Light, Exterior Spots, Rear exterior light.
I'd consider taking off the porch light and see if there are multiple sets of wiring going to it. Maybe it was "customized" to turn on the spots and the porch light at the same time.
Can you turn the porch light on and off with the "mystery" switch if the spotlights are on?
Anyhow, it looks like the "standard" wiring for this model is as described by everybody else. You have the "special deluxe" model!

great, of course i get the mystery switch!
The porch light has it's own exterior switch as well. All it does is allow me to turn off the porch light when the spot lights are on.
WHAT DOES THAT SWITCH DO!!!!!!!! lol.

Sounds like the previous owner had a bad switch and went 15 miles around to fix the problem.. Take some pictures, I'll pull my panel and post up some pics of the wiring.

Should be, aren't there screws on the face of the panel? Mine is accessable from the back via the TV cabinet.
