Well guys, I made a little progress.
First I found the clips that hold the harness to the dash on ebay. I just got them this morning and couldnt wait to open them up. Spread the harness out on the back of the dash and taped them right in. They snap right into the holes on the back of the dash.
I have no idea where this goes. It comes out of the harness by the lighter wire.
This one comes out of the bulkhead connector in a separate thin harness. The car had a rear window defroster. Could this be the connector that went to the switch ? I have no idea where the switch went so I cant check.
This is where that one starts.
This is the last one. Not sure but its on the left side.
This is what the back looks like now. Its not pretty but at least I can put the thing back in.
I tapped into the wire for the heater control light to get power for the lights in the gauges. Im also running the ground wires for the lights and also the gauge ground wire over to the right side. I was going to use the dash mounting screw as a ground. Good or bad idea ? Im open to comments and suggestions. Wiring is not my strong point.
One last question. If the small harness coming out of the bulkhead connector is for the rear window defroster can I unplug that whole thing and toss it ?
