So I started dinking with some of the minor electrical problems today. So I got my handy m4-m16 star chamber brush and put it on a length of cleaning rod and we went to town!
First on the list was wipers.
Took the electrical connector off of the wiper control. And noticed that it was pretty corroded. Went to work on it with the brush for a bit, both the male and female side.
Connected it back up real good and solid.
Plugged in the vacuum line.
Before I went and tested the wipers I decided to do number 2 on my list. Replace all the fuses and clean their conection points.
Once that was done, I tried my wipers. And they work!
Front turn signals and park lights work too.
Then it was on to the back to replace the rear bulbs and see if the rear lights work.
The passenger side lit up but the drivers side did not.
So I pulled the housing and checked the socket to see if it was corroded. It wasnt. So I started followin the wiring down under the truck and I found this
Well I got the trusty old wiring diagram that mr. Mayben was so kind in passing my way and started going over the wires that belong back there.
105-16 was my back up lights. This circuit and connector looked pretty unmolested, so I put that up out of the way.
117-18 was runnin into a connector, then out to the red/brown combo going to the working side of the truck. The other 2 green wires had been cut, and I cannot seem to find the label on them. The red/brown set going to the drivers side tail light had also been cut.
From what I can tell the brown wires are my brake light and the red is the turn signal and tail light?
117-18 seems to be the right side red wire.
115-18 seems to be the left side red wire
21-18 or 16 seems to be the brown wire that goes into a connector and then feeds both lights.
The only problem I see with my rig and the wiring diagram is that the wiring diagram shows 2 connectors for these 3 circuits go run into. Though I May be reading that wrong. My brain is kind of swimming. I think I am gonna go have some lunch and a few beers and mull this over.

any thoughts or suggestions would be a great help. I am wondering if I should gut the original connector and rewire it that way ?
